You're right, I'm in Germany.

I read this morning the UK might go into another lockdown. My home country is still "keeping an eye on the situation " they're being absolutely ridiculous

what I don't get though is even where things are closing, they are keeping schools open. Especially for high schools I don't understand.

Over here, they have to air out - open all windows - between every class and I think once during as well. So basically kids are being told to dress warm because it'll be freezing in the classrooms. That doesn't sound like a great solution.

We're no longer required to go into the office now but it'll remain open for people who can't work from home or prefer working from the office. I don't know, I kind of liked getting out of the house, even enjoyed the bike ride to the office (even in the pouring rain kind of made me feel at home ) but I probably won't go over to sit at the office by myself.

I have to say, even a Skype/Zoom call made me feel better last week. So it does help a bit. I just don't have that many friends to talk to.

I'm still following the news (have to know what the current rules are) but I've decided to stop reading the comments at least. The discussion about the measures and reading people's idiotic and/or selfish comments is so frustrating.
