I am sooo bored !!!!!

I am sooo bored stuck at home.

Been off work on A/L since Friday and even though I'm frontline NHS staff they wouldn't let me cancel it.

Nowhere to go, and anyway, not allowed out and SWMBO says she's on the verge of not being responsible for her actions

.

So, so far today the Micra has been hoovered, and thoroughly cleaned inside including all seats shampood.

Just finished T-cutting and washing the outside, and having tea while it dries, and then a good waxing and polishing.

Same tommorow for the ZT its looking like.

Warning from the Angry Housewives Association:-

All those jobs that he says that he will do "When he gets a minute" should be done now!

The Husband's Society has responded with suggestions as follows:-

1. All the DIY shops are closed so I can't get the materials.

2. I haven't got the correct tools for the job and you wouldn't want me to injure myself and overstetch A&E would you?

3. Have you done your hair differently? It makes you look younger!

Number 3 should only be used if numbers one and two have failed!

Sorry to be pedantic, Robert, but shouldn’t it be polishing and waxing rather than waxing and polishing?

(You can see I’m bored as well!)

Not bored, really, as being retired, I’ve learned how to pace myself........

I know the feeling however this is likely to go on for 3+ months or more. To make it worse I cannot disappear to play a bowls match to relieve the boredom of doing jobs.

Never understood people who say they are bored. I have never been bored, and the current situation means I can start the "would like to do list". Bet I don't finish it!
