Don't strain yourself

I was thinking of incorporating that in my post but it slipped through

Plan is full of holes, it’ll never work.

Very uplifting
If this helps in anyway in supporting NHS then I’m game

Miserable feckers in our street. Out of about 20 houses I think only about 5 bothered

Better in our street than last week. And it was pretty good last week.

Virtually the whole Close out again. Only one clown decided a vuvuzela was a good idea [emoji23][emoji23]

Meanwhile in London :

Very impressive in Truro. Mistimed our walk to Tesco, but the clapping and banging continued as we walked the length of the main road, and it could be heard into the distance, along with cars hooting and seagulls flying in circles and shouting because they didn't know WTF was going on!

 

[SIMMO SAYS]

I clapped my wife and she clapped herself
Quite noisy really!

Can't assume that everyone knows. I only found out fifteen minutes before.

All those tory voters clapping them just says: you are worth a clap in an emergency but not a pay rise.

Well done.

True but I’m biased, I’ve long thought most of them were miserable feckers

Indeed. We had no idea last week until after the event, which had us feeling all kinds of guilty.

Is this happening again tonight? Feels like a mistake to me.

I was in two minds about it last week but was happily surprised by the way it was embraced by all who live round here and it was actually quite uplifting and felt quite defiant as the applause rang out through the darkness. But I can't help but feel this will suffer from the law of dimishing returns if it is to become a weekly 'event'. Definitely one for the serial Facebookers looking for 38 seconds worth of garbage to film and upload. (All in shaky portrait aspect, obvs.)

Well, let's hope the NHS workers and the people keeping the country running don't get bored of battling Coronavirus once the novelty wears off...

I think we can probably all manage to say 'thanks' for a minute a week for as long as it lasts.

That's the spirit.

My son and I were out for our evening walk and got the timing slightly wrong. The last two minutes walk up our road was accompanied by many of our neighbours standing in their front gardens clapping as we walked past.

We decided to style it out by waving back to everyone

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

That was nice. 75% turnout on our cul de sac.

Oh I am all for them. But some people clapping for them is like an attacker clapping their victims first tentative steps in rehab after shattering their legs and back with a lead pipe.

Extremely eloquent and flowing.

I feel like I have read one of your novels.

My thoughts exactly.

Thanks. The utter hypocrisy of some people needs pointing out.

Sorry, I was congratulating you for being unable to keep politics from a non political act.
