Oh no ITG! Is that until you have a negative test or 14 days regardless?

ITG ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ธ
Just till Saturday, Carp, when we get a test.

Frustrating - we hardly ever go out on the weekends but OH decided on a whim to take us out for lunch to a little cafรฉ we rarely frequent. Just unlikely. But on the other hand, we've done pretty well to last this long! The only quarantines I've had are the mini-ones from my aborted trip to Nuuk and then just one night when I waited for a colleague's test result.

But we are still allowed out here as long as we don't meet anyone or go into any shops or public buildings :)

ITG ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ธ
Bit of a bugger but not disastrous. We can both work from home and the kids don't exactly mind 3 days off school :)

Obviously, it's a lot worse if any of us get sick but I suspect we would have symptoms by now if we were going to get them and we're all fine.

Evening gonks. No running for me. Day of temp work 9-6, a long ass day. Then a commission to make tonight. Apart from work and eating, I've not done a lot. Off to bed in a while, will run tomorrow night :-)

Sorry to hear that ITG.
I had the opportunity to meet with dad this Friday, but that will be only just over a week since my visit to the test center when I was sat next to a coughing man. No way I'm going to rush into seeing my 84 yr old dad (even outside) until >14 days symptom free.

About This Thread

Maintained by Serendippily
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2020 thread, everybody welcome. The thread motto is:
'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

At normal times: All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles. Extra points for bins :-) And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed, sometimes even running.
