Re: not coping

I think it will be at least two weeks @outlander perhaps even longer.

I think D will have her birthday in lockdown

Re: not coping

quite possibly @Snowie i think she and S had both their bdays in lockdown last year again didnt they?

I had mine in lockdown last year but thankfully it opened up enough for my sister to have her 18th properly

Re: not coping

Yes they both had their birthdays in lockdown last year so not much will change this year @outlander

I am glad your sister could have her 18th, we were meant to go to an 18th a couple of weeks ago but she couldn't have it because of covid.

Re: not coping

I don't care about my birthday @outlander but wish the kids could have at least a few friends over.

Re: not coping

It is different for the kids @outlander D's birthday is only in a few weeks so will still be in lockdown for it which is a shame. S's birthday is still over a month away so hopefully we will be out of it for that.

Re: not coping

could D have like a zoom bday party? or like a virtual one where they could maybe watch the same movie at the same time and they can still talk etc or set up the computer to face the tv screen so they could watch it 'together' @Snowie

Re: not coping

She could have a zoom party but that is about it @outlander

No doubt her friends will ring her or video chat her for her birthday.
