during lockdown?
I mean anything really, from your favourite pub visits to missing out on your soaps on TV, from your favourite tipple to meeting people ... whatever.
And if we had another lockdown, what if anything would you do differently?

Wow, isnt it interesting how everything that has been mentioned so far revolves aorund other people, friends, family rather than material things. I could not agree more, that was probably the most difficult part (and of course, not meeting anybody off here |

I figured material things were what you was insinuating, as family kinda went without say for me |

"Tattoos.
Although I usually only have 1 every 6 months, I think being told no really got to me.
Booked in now anyway

So happy the studios are opening again and I can get my sleeve finished. Need the cathartic element of it too! |

The thing I missed most was my other half. I don't mean the physical side, I mean the communication, the closeness of knowing he was thinking of me and me him, the instant replies we would give each other and the daily video calls.
I went from being a girlfriend to being the person he could message when it was "safe" to do so. His home life was way more complex than originally disclosed.
And that, for anyone who's been wondering what the hell happened is why we are no longer together and he has left the site.
The thing I would do differently... believe in myself and my gut instinct earlier on. Be braver sooner.
Cook more and be more proactive and productive

Friends and been able to have a coffee in a coffee shop and watch the world go by. Definitely miss the social side of work even just chatting to my work colleagues. Don't miss the commute though.
Hugs  I have gone years without kisses and intimacy and sex but I'm a hugger |

And not entirely honest with themselves either. All changed now tho and that's something I'm pleased about. No malice between us at all.
Yeah, it feels good to be brave and I'm now decorating my house and building my confidence back up |

So many things. Eating out (I've eaten way too many sandwiches), my mum (she's 240 miles away), the clubs (hoping they survive), my FWB (he's been a rock), dentists being open (self extraction performed), a haircut (done myself and harder than pulling teeth), my friends (what the hell is Zoom?), conversation (I now just nod and grunt at my teddy bear), being out in the big wide world (I feel like a recluse). But onwards and upwards we hope |

Friends and lovers.
I was used to seeing my away from fab lover very often, we've seen each other once during lockdown after only messaging for three months and he barely lives ten minutes away from me. Also my on fab lover, gagging to get my hands on him 
Missing my bestie and her daughter, my smallest bestie, loads too! But I managed to see them both briefly when they dropped some Body Shop stuff round for me a few weeks ago. Can't wait to go on a walk and for lunch with my favourite ladies. |

Initially it was not seeing family and friends face to face. Now firstly it is still not being able to hug them. Secondly it’s not working and the prospect of that continuing for a good while longer. But it’s lovely seeing the folks again |

Casual touch. A hand on the arm, a hug from family or friends, my mate playing with my hair to soothe me when I'm feeling tense and starting to spiral.
Swimming. It calms me and I found it really traumatic back in March. To not be able to ease my mind by swimming for miles was incredibly tough.
Calling into a shop for milk without having to think about it or queue up. Going to any shop right now is a big deal to me.
That time after you finish a meal in a restaurant when there are dirty dishes and glasses still on the table but you're sitting with friends all replete and a bit tipsy, talking crap and feeling relaxed and loved. |

"Bloody school
This!
Jo.Xx "
It's been really hard, I've got 4 kids at home, one works and has been furloughed, but the other 3 are missing school, one of whom has asd and it's destroyed him in terms of routine. My youngest is a one man band, on speed with zero chill. He's so clever and gets bored easy.... He NEEDS school but was only in nursery and didn't even go back for a couple of sessions.
We went into lockdown on the 10th march as we have an asthmatic in the house... Then my dad died on the 12th. Not had a minutes peace to grieve and I'm very close to cracking up. Roll on September |
