"No, really. Does anyone miss Lockdown or any aspects of Lockdown?" Our village was so quiet and devoid of traffic. Just birdsong, and the sounds of people occasionally. You could walk down the road without cars roaring past. It was actually very peaceful. I miss that. | |||

"No, really. Does anyone miss Lockdown or any aspects of Lockdown?" I have two admit I do in some ways, I manage to save up a bit and got a few jobs done when everything was allowed, I would never have thought of coming on a website like this before Covid, and I don’t know, it just seemed different. But that’s not taking away from anyone who lost people during this | |||

"Not in the slightest I hated the queues I hated the selfishness of ppl when they shopped, when they brought far more than needed, leaving nothing for others. I hated life going online" I hated the self importance of others shopping I hated the self importance of 'I've been told to stay at home' (we all did! But some couldn't) I hated the 'I'm so finically hard done by losing 85%, when they were essentially losing transport costs | |||

), plus time to slow down a bit. I was 100% adherent to the law, as atrociously as the government managed the whole thing. I found it extremely hard to have been so disconnected from others and thank God there were some tiny crumbs of positives | |||

"No, really. Does anyone miss Lockdown or any aspects of Lockdown?" OP, I went into London (critical worker) mid lockdimown 1. Walked front King's Cross to Westminster and passed 2 other people on the way. It was amazing. St James's Park was just wildlife and no people, I sat down for 10 mins just to take it in. | |||

"100 percent. I actually feel it brought alot of people together. It was a good break from society to recoup and help each other out. Makes you realise how much working all the time gets in the way of all that good will." That might be true to an extend for then. Since then people seem to have become more selfish than ever before, businesses have dropped the quality of products and services using that as an excuse years later and even ptofessional services that should be face to face are done on the cheap on a quick phone call. People wfh as a result of companies finding cheaper ways to operate have started to miss the benefits of working with others, not just the paractical benefits, but those to their own well being. There will always be some that these changes arr benefiting but hardly everyone imo. | |||
