May have mentioned it before but one of the jobs in the household was made essential...so now theres no way to complete cut myself off. I'm in the hands of the universe....still.

What do they do?

My family members who are docs are staying in their garages now I think

Or they have it set up to get changed there and go shower?

Warehouse work. Not even close to being able to take the necessary precautions. Takes his breaks in his car....not a huge workforce but still. Cant see this going well.

Apparently, hospitals need lights....pfft. No light neva made me feel no better.

I'm still going to work also, trying to be sensible stay away from people etc

Taxi - Work - Taxi - Home. Same cab everyday.

Damn. Hopefully their work is taking this seriously at least

I'm in day 14 of lockdown now, but I've basically taken for granted that we'll catch this sooner or later at home. My partner works at the main hospital treating COVID cases in Tenerife. Isolation ward is at full capacity, intensive care is there or thereabouts. Other wards are having to take on cases now, and there's nowhere near enough protective gear to go round.

to be fair i could do with reigning in some dumb spending i guess, i calculated i spend about £1,000 a year on bottled water, then you've got £2400 on cigarettes, probably about 5k a year on gambling, that's £8,400 just on them 3 things which are pretty easily eradicated
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Jeezus....I mean seriously....I don't know where to start with this

Oh actually I do...you should be arrested just for the water, that is obscene
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If you're admitting that you lose 5k a year of your hard earned money on gambling then stop gambling. Or get help to try and stop mate. Otherwise the bookies will happily continue to tax you 5k per year.

Lockdown has officially been in place for 12 days. (We isolated earlier out of precaution because my daughter had a bad cold.)

Only essential workers are allowed out. The rest of us can only leave the house for grocery shopping and pharmacy visits.

We are not even allowed out for exercising. The few exceptions include dog walking (only within a short distance) or taking your kids out if they have special medical conditions such as autism.

As for isolation from the rest of Spain, we have two flights a day to/from the mainland, but only for specially authorised travel, such as returning to your usual place of residence. My eldest is due back on tomorrow. Lockdown caught him in a camp up in the mountains in central Spain, where he and 12 others have remained in voluntary self-isolation these 2 weeks.

I think I’d get more ill from thar kind of lockdown

Sounds like you're down more often than not. Up to you though of course mate, it's your money to lose.

That we still have all these gambling ads on tv beggars belief. Obviously someone's pocket is getting lined to make sure that's still the case.
