    Just been told that we in the service will be imminently tested for COVID-19......can’t say I’m that fussed for myself but think it will set the Mrs mind at rest if I’ve had it already.

    We just took part. Quite moving really, I was surprised how many people in our street were joining in.

    To echo what you’ve all said already, I was amazed that my whole street came out and clapped.....and yeah it really did get me emotional and very proud of what I do.
    I’m not used to this ‘hero’ stuff being put about, I’ve been a horrible bastard for much of my life, but I’m now doing a job I love and a job I feel is really making a difference.....I’m honoured, touched and like many of my colleagues, I’m really feeling the love from everyone.
    Bless you all

    It couldn’t happen at a worse time G....just found out an old mate died yesterday so a bit emotional anyway.
    And now all this ‘being nice’ stuff.....
    I’m back on the Politics thread ASAP to have another row with Ellers...that’ll get me back to normality :). (That was a joke Ellers ;) )

    Even in my road of only five houses, where one of them has terminal cancer and can't go out, there were 3 of us outside clapping and cheering!
    Staines you and your co workers are amazing!
    Thank you!
    Love Cate X

    Sadly there is not a lot in the way of politics to debate unless we talk about the Russian fleet in the Channel. <yikes> Be good to see you back mate :emoticon-0148-yes:

    We're watching Contagion on ITV tonight. Holy ****, it's freaky. Filmed in 2011, they are talking about the virus originating in China, a cross between eating bats and pigs, respiratory issues, social distancing, touching surfaces and then your face, all the **** we're being told about COVID.

    We did the applause. Someone set a firework off at 8pm and then virtually everyone came out. It was very moving until I shouted out that it was more clapping than I usually hear at QPR.

    We also watched that tonight and it was weird listening to the news guy character, as it sounded like what I heard for real today!
