@DivaDoodle : we are at lock down since October, but until a week before Christmas we could have 5 visitors from two different families and the shops were open. Since then all shops (eccept food stores) are closed and we were just allowed to have 2 visitors from one other family. Unfortunately noone cared for this restrictions so we now have the restruction in travelling and the shops stay closed untill the end of January. Schools and kindergartens are closed, too. All entertaining businesses like restaurants, concerts, museums, etc. are closed since October. Our death numbers are rising awfully and the hospitals work at their capacity limit.
And now that there is this new version of corona coming from Britain the government is really concerned about the situation, because if there will be a bit more infections the hospitals can´t handle the ill anymore....
I stayed at home since March, since the first lock down, I´m a so called risk patient because of my lung disease, so I try to stay away from people, especially from people who wea no masks. Fortunately, we have a mask-wearing requirement in shops since a few months so the people are used to wear them now. Most of the people are reasonable, but there are always some a...s.s...h..o..le..s
Such a taff decision! Maybe play them a bit longer as teens, let Marigold move in for a few days and then, when she and Cabana are married, they´ll move out and Ari can have a birthday cake?
