Serendippily May 2020 9:48pm, 31 May 2020 17,896 posts	0 Serendippily Thanks x I’ve made what we need now the 24hr notice was just Sod’s law
Serendippily May 2020 9:49pm, 31 May 2020 17,897 posts	0 Serendippily I don’t think that would be ok at the surgery chrisity although I’m sure it’s fine in a non medical setting when you are SD anyway
Lizzie W May 2020 10:22pm, 31 May 2020 23,183 posts	0 Lizzie W My work surgery says face covering for patients, eg scarf. The nurse wears a proper mask. The admin staff don't wear any face covering, but the patient-facing reception are getting sneeze screens.
DoricQuine May 2020 10:27pm, 31 May 2020 4,834 posts	0 DoricQuine We will have our first socially distanced funeral on Tuesday for the oldest member of our family. My OH's aunt and the last of 11 children to go. I'm anticipating it to be the most traumatic family gathering we have ever had.

Tim of Fife May 2020 10:41pm, 31 May 2020 2,591 posts	0 Tim of Fife We decided on a totally unattended cremation for my FiL, which took place last Friday. The alternative - maybe just my wife and I there with maybe a video link to other mourners- was too ghastly to contrmplate. So, post Covid, we'll meet to celebrate his life properly.
Little Miss Happy Jun 2020 6:29am, 1 Jun 2020 2,621 posts	0 Little Miss Happy I don't envy you the train journey LN - is your cough better? My GP doesn't ask patients to wear masks, medical staff are in full PPE, admin behind a screen. Not good with the short notice and added stress at what is obviously going to be a stressful time Serendippily, well done on rising to the challenge.
Little Nemo Jun 2020 7:35am, 1 Jun 2020 10,608 posts	0 Little Nemo It will be my first time on public transport since lockdown but I think it's the fact that I don't know what to expect that's making me nervous. My cough is nearly gone. Inhaler has worked miracles and I'm only using it once a day now
