The Isolation Blog

A place for those of us in lockdown (currently Spain but coming to a place near you soon) to share what's happening or indeed what's not happening, have a winge, report on what's happening "outside" etc. It could also be used for updating who has supplies of toilet rolls in stock professor laugh

Riz, I don't envy you getting on a plane uh oh could be worse I suppose, you could take a cruise wow
Riz, write a book and post it on here in chapters to keep us all going laugh

Having said that, I'd happily read all Enid Blython books again. I grew up on them.
Maybe I'm being gloomy but at this time we most of us are relying on the internet, sites like CS are paid for by advertising, what's going to happen when the companies that pay for the ads aren't making any money dunno
I´ve been eating 5 toilet rolls a day and I´ve still got this virussigh
BN, well you've followed the 5 a day rule so it can only be that you bought the cheap own brand stuff, if it can't stand up to your fingers it'll stand no chance against the virus professor
Hello Z,

Self employed here...so on that end not much difference...mostly done over the internet.

I have a slight stockpile of supplies. I didn't want to find out the hard way that I am going to need them. Hopefully the panic has subsided a bit, to be that can be more dangerous than the actual virus.

There is nothing mandatory for the individual around here right now. They have closed schools, suspended sporting events, and are in the process of closing down places that accumulate larger crowds.

Myself, I am self quarantining myself as much as I can. I still do have obligations that need to be met that have me travel from my home. When I do those, I make sure I avoid anything with potential risks and wash my hand frequently. So...I have got a lot of extra sleep that I probably was in need of and I have been watching a lot of movies. Not too bad...my house is next to spotless clean too. lol.

Stay safe everyone.

Toilet roll futures - d'ya feel lucky, punk?

An inadvisability cloak has one disadvantage, it tends to catch the attention of busybodies.

I'd personally recommend the SEP cloak. Your car remains completely visible, which frankly is quite handy if you have to leave it in a parking lot, but registers on all who see it as Someone Else's Problem.

I'll send you the brochure in a guaranteed-to-be-virus-free nettle-woven pouch, let me know what you think.

Remember - economy is one thing, lasting value another. Your SEP has endless possibilities and an infinite variety of uses.
After a bracing dog walk, I've decided to trade my toilet paper stash for large firm kumquats.
After running out of toilet paper I had to use socks, poor little hamster
After running out of socks, poor little hamster.
That's a very environmentally-friendly solution,BN. Well done.
He can be used, cleaned, and re-used numerous times.
Yes, and he makes squeaky noises which excites the dog
BN, are you sure that wasn't you squeaking with delight?
Do not try this at home but - food for thought. The neck of a goose as a wipe.



V, would an invasability cloak make people mind their own business laugh
Z, nothing makes people do that.

But the remarkable multi-use SEP does stop people even seeing your business and therefore they have nothing to mind so far as you are concerned.

Buy now before stocks run out. grin
KP, so we're led to believe 5 year olds should have no problem dealing with it anyway, but I wouldn't want to test that theory if I had grandkids.
V, I'll take one banana better make that 2 if it was made in China laugh
Molly, don't worry about what it is, it's something you can actually buy at the moment laugh
I was just going to run up to the shop to buy one moping
Molly, I'd run up there whilst you're still allowed and before they become like toilet paper wow
I hope the shop assistant knows what I'm talking about when I ask for one so.
Is one enough?
Molly, depends if it's just you, you'll need one for each dog if you're taking them with you professor
3 SEPS it is so thumbs up

laugh
Johnny, sorry missed your comment doh personally I'm trying to avoid too much sleep, bad for the circulation, so instead I just took the dog for a walk, took me ages to find him as he'd already taken himself off for one laugh
Molly, just to save you looking back the SEP is a cloaking device so anyone seeing you thinks it's "Someone Else's Problem" laugh
Ah now I could have saved myself a log-in

There's a commission for you Z if she takes 3 laugh
V, oh goodie, that'll be something I've achieved today help
V, no not lost, I for one watched it, even though it was a strain them all being remainers rolling on the floor laughing
Lockdown news - Spain to close borders to foreigners at midnight.
I bought chocolate and pizza instead laugh

Plenty of toilet paper there too.
Want me to send you some?
Molly scold that's no good, that'll make you easier to spot, you'll be that much bigger laugh
Hell, I decided as it is Patrick's Day tomorrow I'd have an unhealthy meal for once laugh
We can all take the virus test for free now, not a real one of course but the online version.

Molly, you'll need to eat celery for a week to make up for it professor
Somehow I doubt the shops will run out of celery laugh
banana found a plus side to the virus, bullfighting cancelled so 120 bulls saved cheering
Molly, I expect you're right, people will still have stocks of that left over from Christmas laugh
Brussels sprouts are probably a safe bet too so
