great news obb xxWell, 5.4 this morning and a temp of 36.0 so I'm more than good
The cough and breathlessness are still there but given my COPD etc I expect time to be the healer of that. I have a call booked with my doc today to update but I would expect to be let off the hook with his usual proviso of "if anything changes...".
Therefore I am going back to my normal self-isolating, anti-social fun guy lifestyle
In all seriousness, I am eternally grateful to my friends. Three doctors, two nurses, a paramedic and a policeman who took time out of being essential to the world at large to be essential in my small life. Yes, they are personal friends but I know how busy they are right now and the personal traumas they have all set aside. Thanks to folk here and on other forums that have been supportive and caring, it helps a lot
I've been very lucky, should have got some lottery tickets
I am pleased she has resigned. What ever made her think she could flout the rules - especially as she was urging everyone to follow the rules with such conviction.And on a positive note.
Scottish CMO has resigned.
Hope there is no golden handshake..reprehensible behaviour risking lives, that needs to be punished not rewarded.
Can't lead from the front of your don't lead your self.

Brilliant news, attitude, relationship with your Dr and vindication of what technology can do for us at its best. Have I missed anything - maybe your stylist or hairdresser?Had my video call with my doc and he is happy with how things are going. He's keeping me on the steroids for another week to take the strain off. As he pointed out I'm not out of the woods but I can see the edge, existing conditions will slow me down but such is life
The best part was the start of the call, he looks at me and goes "I'm admitting you to the hospital now". When I asked why he goes on to say "listen to yourself, you sound like a steam train". I pointed out I was vacuuming when he called, the first time I've done anything in a week. His reply was remarkably un-doctor like

6.5 this morning. I actually think that the meter was kind to me this morning after yesterday's overconsumption of everything low carb.
Today is hopefully a 'must try harder ' day.

Nothing to forgive, these things happen and can be so frustrating. Some good landscapes and seascapes from you I suggest you try and get some good watercolour paper which you can wet and then paint, cold pressed is the best in my opinion.@Muddy Cyclist I empathise with your disappointment on the 'muddy' in your painting, 'muddy' is one of my greatest challenges, forgive me if I say it's quite heartening (to me),to see that even an accomplished artist can be ambushed by it too.
Major moral questions about just what I ask my children and by implication grandchildren to do/risk on my behalf probably for about 2 years. Triggered by @geefull posting about Tesco destocking chocolateI obviously want Julie to get better but the issue then becomes how morally and logistically I carry out my obligation to allow her to live her life e,g, walking dogs and responsibly sourcing food whilst I shield to ensure I don't put others at risk. Search for click and collect supermarkets within what I consider a safe distance for her and the boys is a focus today.
Edit: It is beyond me as to why supermarket IT teams can't run a simple query to find all registered customers with an address matching that of a shielding person. What am I missing here?

agree that Koffee stock replenishing is of vital importance at the moment.For myself, kofee stocks need replenishing. Best go and check on that and take a sample of what is left.
Will J and Silent Bob be staying outside.Have to start planning my exercise regime now, this looks ok
Will J and Silent Bob be staying outside.
No idea how to rate this as no idea *** this is all about but took up some of my 3 months so thanks. O/T I can get keto chocolate delivered from Germany long before groceries from any UK supermarket. In no way linked to the breath taking arrogance and total disregard for life of someone who thinks the only person who can properly direct the protection of 60 million people is him from a hospital bed. No sir.Will J and Silent Bob be staying outside.
