What will folk do if they live in a block of flats if someone wants to get into the lift with you?
I’m in the middle of a large tower block if I get in the lift and it stops at another floor I cannot stop someone else getting in with me?
do you realise what some people are like! I don’t want to get thumped!
You hand them a pre-prepared postcard or something similar which says something like “Not trying to be rude, but I have MS and can’t afford to be around people while this pandemic is going on - I am very vulnerable to infections, so I am distancing/self isolating/whatever is the latest thing that we’re supposed to be doing - (and I do wish they’d make up their minds what that is) - take the lift if you want it, I’ll take the next one.” I would hope that any decent person would understand…!
…by the time they read it, the lift has moved on and BINGO.
Well, maybe make it a bit shorter…! or fake a cough or two, and watch them disappear…
Or eat a whole lot of garlic…good for immunity and keeping people at arm’s length
Do you think that the type of person who when I got into the lift with them started chuntering under their breath “something about being the size of a house” will allow you to take a lift if they want it! it’s true but who the hell does he think he is! Or someone who thought that Christmas Day was a good day to put up up a shelf has any consideration for others! Our walls are made off aggregated concrete and are a bu**er to drill into with a masonry drill.
I personally don’t need to fake a cough, I’ve had one since i caught the lurgy at the beginning of February, I’m still coughing now a bit. I had the worst dry cough I’ve ever had that kept me awake most of the night followed by snotty nose for a week, and more dry coughing, the week after, the news from China started coming in and I joked " Now I now what I had last week think I must be patient zero" it was just a cold.
I’ve not been out since the 5th of March! I’ve got a freezer with some ready meals bought over the last two years, and a cupboard with tins also bought over the last two years, the last supermarket delivery I had my normal 18 rolls of loo paper plus already 4 rolls for emergencies bought months ago long life milk which I buy regularly. I’m also rationing some things and trying to make them stretch further, but this can’t last forever things are already depleting and one of us will have to go shopping.
My hubby makes our meals…we always eat different food…he wont change but I will…gonna be even fatter…
