Yay, we’re out of lockdown...not that it’ll make much of a difference to those of us in tier 3! Having said that, I saw on the local news that people were queuing outside Primark at 5 o’clock this morning. I don’t really understand why you’d do that, but good luck to anyone who’s planning on going shopping today.
I would imagine Debenhams is going to be crazily busy as people try to get a bargain. I saw friends were trying to get on the website last night but were in huge queues just to access the site. I don’t know if any of them managed to buy anything. I do feel sorry for the staff who will no doubt be very busy, all the time knowing they’re losing their jobs.
A bit of positive news...one of the COVID vaccines has been approved for use in the uk. Will you have it if you’re offered it? I don’t think I’ll be offered it any time soon as I’m not in a high risk group, but I think I probably will have it when it gets to my turn. Not particularly to protect me, but to help put an end to the whole thing and get us back to some sort of normal. The more people who have it, the more chance we have of that happening.
On a lighter note, what has everyone got planned for today? We’re cracking on with our Christmas crafts. DD is at home this week and the start of next week, so I’m making the most of her being here. Paint, glue, glitter and toddlers are much easier to control when there’s an extra pair of hands :laughing:
Have good days everyone :thumbsup:
