Tomorrow is the National Homeschool Coronavirus drill. Lock your kids and grandkids in the basement until you give the all clear.
2019: Stay away from negative people. 2020: Stay away from positive people.
The world has turned upside down. Old folks are sneaking out of the house, and their kids are yelling at them to stay indoors!
You think it’s bad now? In 20 years our country will be run by people homeschooled by day drinkers
This virus has done what no woman had been able to do: cancel all sports, shut down all bars, and keep men at home!!!
Do not call the police on suspicious people in your neighborhood! Those are your neighbors without makeup and hair extensions!
Since we can’t eat out, now’s the perfect time to eat better, get fit, and stay healthy. We’re quarantined! Who are we trying to impress? We have snacks, we have sweatpants – I say we use them!
Day 7 at home and the dog is looking at me like, “See? This is why I chew the furniture!”
Does anyone know if we can take showers yet, or should we just keep washing our hands?
I never thought the comment “I wouldn’t touch him/her with a ten-foot pole” would become a national policy, but here we are!
Me: Alexa what’s the weather this weekend?
Alexa: It doesn’t matter; you’re not going anywhere.
Can everyone please just follow the government instructions so we can knock out this coronavirus and be done?! I feel like a kindergartner who keeps losing more recess time because one or two kids can’t follow directions.
I swear my fridge just said, “What the hell do you want now?”
When this is over…what meeting do I attend first…Weight Watchers or AA?
Quarantine has turned us into dogs. We roam the house all day looking for food. We are told “no” if we get too close to strangers. And we get really excited about car ridesAn ex-Disco3 / FFRR owner ......
..... now on the JLR electric highway.

It is with great sadness that I have to announce the loss of further local businesses around the town:-
- the bra manufacturer has gone bust,
- the specialist in submersibles has gone under,
- the manufacturer of food blenders has gone into liquidation,
- a dog kennel has had to call in the retrievers,
- the suppliers of paper for origami enthusiasts has folded,
- the Heinz factory has been canned as they couldn't ketchup with orders,
- the tarmac laying company has reached the end of the road,
- the bread company has run out of dough,
- the clock manufacturer has had to wind down,
- the Chinese has been taken away,
- the shoe shop has had to put his foot down and given his staff the boot; and finally
- the launderette has been taken to the cleaners!Am I Gammon or Woke ? - I neither know nor care.
