Fingers crossed for Cheeky

I don't think you're anywhere near me, but that's pretty much what's happened here too. Marigood and AN other last week, 1 over the weekend, 2 more this week. Today the whole year bubble (or what was left of it) sent home until after half term

That’s pretty much exactly what happened here WA (only you said it much more clearly than I did 😀) All the positive cases are in one subject group but, of course, they all do other subjects and the friendship groups cut across all of it. Inevitable really.

We’re in the North East near Llangollen so in a lockdown area already.

Not too worried about Cheeky himself. He’s pretty fit & healthy though his girlfriend has some health issues and I’d rather he didn’t bring it home but que sera sera

T1 just rang. Her housemate has it :(

I was going to visit next week, but obviously can't, and while I don't think that any of them are at all likely to get really sick, I'm still a little worried.

It would be weird if you weren't, tbh.

I’m not at all worried about ds1. More worried that he’s bored and lonely and still has about 3 days left of quarantine left and might be getting scurvy :)

Oh no. It’s now a rite of passage for students, like Freshers Flu it seems.

Youngest is out of quarantine. I’m visiting tomorrow to take her for lunch and shopping. Both Tier 1 so all above board and legal!

Sadly me n teen now tier 3 from Monday so shouldn't see each other at all. I can't help worrying but he seems to be okay.

Looks like it might be last opportunity for us if we go into a national lockdown :-(
