This has been the worst time for us all for many years. It is a very trying time for people with families having to keep their children at home.
It is all right if you have a garden but, if not, being confined to the house may be very nerve-wracking if you have children to entertain.
And what about elderly people who are on their own, what do they do?
I am alone, I don’t have family, so I depend on home care people coming in daily to help me cope from day to day. Unfortunately, I had major heart surgery in November last year and I have been mainly housebound in all that time, and I look forward to be able to get out for a wee while, as being in for this length of time has become very depressing.
People are going out and about talking to each other and visiting their relatives but not everyone is following the rules, but people will do what they want.
I would love to get out and about but I need someone to take me in a wheelchair but I don’t know who or when this will happen.
Good luck to everyone.
