Look after yourselves and do something self improving during your isolation. Bone setting perhaps….
As I saw Beth on Saturday (actually stood next to her for the match, though such is the differential in height I doubt there was much risk there….) she very responsibly alerted me and others to her test result. I tested negative yesterday, but once again was feeling a bit crap last night. Fine again this morning and another negative test, perhaps my learning is that I’m old, big weekends take it out of me (had a big Friday night as well). No pinging as I don’t have the app.
But if you have any nervousness about the virus do not go to the football, at least not QPR. There were multiple occasions- in a couple of pubs, in the horrendous queues to get in, in the crowded ground, on trains, where I could have been infected. The excitement of being back at a ‘proper’ game and seeing old friends made me forget about the virus for a bit, but in retrospect it was a bit nuts. I wonder if we will see a spike from this first weekend back at the footy. Very little mask wearing going on except on the tube - which wasn’t too crowded when I got on, the only people not wearing masks were the posh, QPR supporting parents of a couple of teenagers (wearing masks) and a younger boy (mask round neck) on the way back from the match. I lacked the energy to challenge but felt like smashing their faces in, arrogant ****s. I also wore my mask on the crowded train back, but very few others did, so a waste of time.
All of this is fine as long as none of us end up in hospital or dead, but we know that some will. All gone Wild West.
