1of4 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Will be watching Matt Damon in The Martian. In case this self isolation lasts longer than two weeks, I'll know how to survive on a few potatoes and my own poo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share Posted March 19, 2020 My plan (now I can't teach any more and I'm skint because I'm self employed) is so socialise with 2 or 3 people for a day or two then completely self isolate with the lad for 6/7 days to ensure I'm not infected, before seeing the odd person or two again. This will minimise my exposure and virtually eliminate any chance of infecting others, whilst still feeling like I have a weekend. In my self isolation periods I will still go walking and cycling in the country. Just making sure I wear gloves and don't get tempted by pubs. Whilst at home, I'm going to try and garden (or sit outside) whenever it's sunny and binge watch, read and do telephone quizzes with mates. Sporcle is a good site to find good quizzes on. Hoping to pick up some great tips on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll pick up more germs on the soft fabric of a glove than your skin will. And your skin is easier to wash than the gloves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comrade 86 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Folk could look at apps like Google Hangouts and Skype for face to face chats and interaction if they don't own iPhones or use Whatsapp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimmu Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 I usually watch Ted talks a lot but now it's getting out of hand. I'm not good at watching series but this particular show I'm very much into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched it when I had just split up with the first Mrs Wolfie and was also snowed in. I've never felt so lonely and isolated in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
