7:33 am
hokie carla
I just heard of yeet yesterday for the first time ever. I think that slang is way too new.
7:34 am
MollyL
Yeet...it's the new woot. I don't care for either. Sounds too teeny-bopperish.
7:35 am
hokie carla
I forgot the context my friend said her daughter used it. It wasn’t like woot when she used it.
7:36 am
hokie carla
I had to ask her 3x what she was saying and then asked for the spelling
7:36 am
MollyL
Really? When I looked it up it says "Yeet is an exclamation of excitement, approval, surprise, or all-around energy, often as issued when doing a dance move or throwing something."
7:38 am
hokie carla
She said something like “those girls have a lot of yeet†and she was talking about mean girls, so I thought she meant they were cocky

Good evening all. Distinct Autumnal chill in the air here. The leaves are changing colour. I feel like I’ve been swindled out of Summer 2020. Pubs shut since March 12th. (Shock horror). Despite severe restrictions, the number of infections are rising daily. I’m sick & tired of Covid19. I’m weary of working from home. I’m missing my kids/grandson in the UK who can’t come home because of quarantining. I’m sorry for moaning.
5:43 pm
ChrissieDee
Hugs Soodle. It’s sh## isn’t it
5:48 pm
Soodle
Thanks Chrissie. I’m feeling particularly morose tonight. And yep! It’s shite. Andi it’s gone on too long. And by me posting my mini-rant Here on Babble - it’ll all go away...🙄🙄🙄
5:48 pm

What are the stats for infection like in Lancashire?
5:50 pm
ChrissieDee
Today we had 6 adults and my one year old nephew, in 2 days we would be fined for that
5:52 pm
ChrissieDee
45 in the last 2 weeks
5:53 pm
ChrissieDee
What are the stats by you?
5:53 pm
lynxxx
we can't even have one - except if you are a single household - then you can have one. And no visitors inside home for another 2 months
5:53 pm
Soodle
The powers that be are struggling to formulate any sort of cohesive plan. I think they are making it up as they go along.
5:54 pm
ChrissieDee
Wow lyn, that’s harsh
5:55 pm
Soodle
not sure of the stats,but an a erage of 150/230 new cases per day. Significant decrease in death rates
5:56 pm
lynxxx
Very harsh and going on for a long time - but it is working. We have mask, curfew and 5km restriction etc etc. But it is v hard - would love to see my kids
5:56 pm
Soodle
Yikes Lynn. That’s tricky.
5:57 pm
lynxxx
but we were up to some 700 new infections perday and now down to below 50. Sad;ly it got into aged care homes this times so lots of deaths (for us)
5:58 pm

hello lyn

To get from 700 per day to under 50 per day is impressive
5:59 pm
72 Temple Owl
there it is!
5:59 pm
ChrissieDee
We had many deaths in the first few months but most were elderly or with underlying health conditions
5:59 pm
Soodle
Om nom nom Owl. Enjoy
6:02 pm
Soodle
same here Chrissie. The elderly seem to have been sacrificed to keep acute hospital beds open for younger fitter victims of this damn. Irus
6:04 pm
lynxxx
Wasn't the case here but lack of PPE or incorrect use, plus caual staff who where working between facilities have been pinpointed. Plus it is just so damn infectious
6:06 pm
lynxxx
Even though these sort of pandemics have been expected for years, except for a few countries, no-one bothered to really be prepared for them.
6:06 pm

I was very supportive of our government’s actions initially, but not so now. When they told everyone to go back to offices to save the coffee shops they lost all credibility with me
6:10 pm
lynxxx
I was surprised to see people travelling again over there as well
6:10 pm
Soodle
It probably happened all over the world, but many banks here ga e mortgage breaks to their customers for the duration of lockdown. Many people had a few shillings saved for their annual holidays. The result is that people have a bit more cash in their pocket at the moment, and there’s not a tradesman to be got Who’da thunk?
6:13 pm
lynxxx
because tradesmen can't work? or they are too busy?4
6:14 pm

I do wish they would stop spelling the Australian bird like that - so wrong!
