    That's right, Stees - a bit like Seinfeld. 🙂
    I would stick it right in there with Seinfeld only instead of a comedy it is a thread about nothing. 😉

    It's a thread about those who post here. We can all meet at the local coffee-shop.

    Maybe but don’t forget to stick to the two meters apart rule.

    I think we are down to one meter now, or thereabout. Very few coffee-shops can make a profit on such a small number of customers. I stick to common sense, at least with this.

    Hi VR and GBS, thanks for the warm welcomes to this thread. I feel very rude that I didn't reply sooner. I've just spent the day with family, walking at a proper distance of course!

    One of my daughters work at a Bar/Restaurant where she is actually getting more hours! They want different people clearing up to those serving and loads more cleaning in general so she is actually earning more than pre COVID. It's owned by a big chain though so whether they are running at a loss to stimulate business and get people comfortable going out again time will tell.

    Absolutely not! 🙂 I think she can tell us about the trip she made with her husband through Europe a few years ago.

    I think you were being nice to let me win the first game. I should have been nice and let you win the second one!
    That was a great trip for us, meeting all of you. We had planned to repeat the experience this year, but the best laid plans ....
