I haven't seen any thing about this.  I saw it on the news and wondered how did everybody know ?   Perhaps you could let me know,   but I expect I will be the only one clapping in my lane.  My clapping might encourage a few more to join in.    Mrs Bouquet

Last week we were the only ones out clapping and we couldn't hear any other noise, last night however there were more people out on their doorsteps and we could hear clapping, whistles, football rattles, bells etc.  Didn't feel so silly this week.

It's 8pm every Thursday  :)
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

Why did it take this Corona virus to acknowledge all the NHS staff for the great work they do? One thing I wish is that they'd mention other staff such as those in the labs (like I used to was), X-Ray departments, Occupational therapy and so many more. If they don't get a good pay rise after it's all over I shall be very cross indeed!
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

We’ve been doing it, although I have some issues with it, I appreciate it in the spirit it’s meant.

We are leaving out sealed bottles of water and packaged snacks for out delivery drivers and posties etc. Except I haven’t had a delivery since I started doing it. No post, even.

Our shop is open (hardware) but only in the mornings.  We have one customer bringing us a hot sausage roll each when he comes in and the lady across the road,aged 84, waves a coffee mug at me and if I stick my thumb up I get a mug made for me.   It's nice to be appreciated.

My son in law is a paramedic and claps for the ladies in the sweet shop who have, and are keeping him supplied with jelly babies, his drug of choice.  He maintains they are just as important.
