What will you MISS when the lock down ends??

I’ll miss the freedom to not have to be anywhere at a certain time. It’s please myself every day.

An empty diary- I feel all at see without stuff to go and do.

Can’t think of anything I’ll miss.

The freedom to not wear a bra and not wear any makeup at all. In fact, I'm dreading the thought of having to go back into the office and having to faff about slapping makeup on and wearing more formal and restrictive clothes. #ihavebecomeaslob

Nothing to miss. I loved the freedom we had before (once retired of course).

I’ll miss the certainty of not being interrupted in whatever I’m doing (except by phone, of course), and having no obligation to do anything much.

I will miss the brilliant blue skies and the only noise being the birds singing. The lack of pollution has been amazing.

The clean air, bird song, wildlife, peace and quiet. It was a nice while it lasted. It’s already changing now that everyone’s jumping back in their cars.

Having no real time table to the day, few interruptions when I'm getting on with something.

An empty diary, living in slob city, what cannot be done today can be done next week or whenever.

Queuing outside everywhere- even my local fish and chip shop.

The lack of traffic! It has been bliss during lockdown, hardly any cars on the road and no traffic jams. The freedom to do housework any time of the day rather than first thing in the morning, (was always worried in case we got visitors). Not wearing makeup every day- although I do feel a bit of a slob for not making the effort ? Likewise, not washing my hair every other day, I have found out that it looks fine if only washed twice a week instead, a real revelation to me!

The quiet roads, fresher air and the lovely birdsong.

Shush dont tell him but I will miss having my OH around all day! We are normally like ships that pass in the night but its been lovely to wake up to a cup of tea and the papers, then sit together reading them and passing each other things to check out instead of him rushing off to work and not getting home until after 6 hot and bothered (and often grumpy) because of traffic or problems at work.

I'll certainly miss:

The peace and quiet, less traffic on the roads, the lack of pollution.

Can’t join in this having obeyed the rules and not driven to see my family since March sorry.

I'll miss the quieter roads which has meant the wild life has been much more noticeable, especially the song birds.
I'll also miss the clearer skies.

I shall miss the peace and quiet. Hardly any traffic and no vapour trails. No workmen with their loud drills as I was woken up to this morning! I’d be quite happy to go out on a bike if the roads stayed car free, but they won’t. I groaned reading the thread on driving. I wish people would stop dashing about and flying abroad for their holidays. Sorry, feeling grumpy today.

I know I'll miss the peace, the slower pace of life, quieter roads, clearer skies, birdsong, money remaining in the bank for longer. All good!

I haven't missed wandering around town looking for 'bargains' which we don't need. I will look forward to being able to meet with friends at a pub or restaurant again. Or go to a concert or the theatre.

Being able to walk down the street without breathing in traffic fumes; being able to cross the road without waiting at the crossings; being able to wander around town without coping with large crowds. The friendliness of strangers as all try to skirt around each other in small spaces.

Lucca I hope most of us haven't driven more than a few miles for food shopping, hospital appointments etc. However, we still notice how quiet the roads are even on those short journeys.

I have only driven twice since lockdown and the roads were so quiet. I will certainly miss that.

I'll miss lots!

But the main thing I'll miss is my youngest daughter. She is a teacher down south. She had come up for Mother's Day and has been here ever since.

I'll miss not having to rush out for appointments, meetings, aqua class , rehearsals etc. Although I miss seeing people (especially family) I’ve enjoyed having the leisure to decide what to do every day ,(or not do much) and the weather has bee n so lovely- sitting in the garden, going for walks with hardly any traffic, listening to birdsong etc has been a joy. Much the same as others. I think I’ll be a bit reluctant to resume my normally busy life!

Peace and quiet
