Let's all post up an uplifting heartwarming clip or photo to boost our spirits during lockdown.

Here is one of mine:

I must have seen this clip over 50 times now!

Quite incredible skipping. The little girl is so nonchalant. Music is catchy as well.

Oopsminty that’s amazing skipping! I wonder how long it took to reach perfection.
My washing line snapped recently. While I was removing it I had an urge to see if I could still skip. I managed to reach 10 skips but my ankles and knees were complaining for days after it.

Just brilliant Ashcomebe ?

Sparklefizz Mon 09-Nov-20 08:46:54

All brilliant in different ways (very impressed with the skipping, even doing fancy steps!)

Any more to come to start off the week well?

Oh dear that was so sweet - was hoping not to cry at anything today but I'm off.

It’s not even 10am and I’m sitting here crying buckets after watching the little boy with his puppy

My little moggy.

Smile a while!

Oh dear. I tried to upload a very cute photo of my little cat and it didn't work. :-(

Reminds of the wonderful Malcolm MacLaren video, Double Dutch:

Bathsheba, so funny but my eyes were also down to the baby Jesus, was it a doll? No! It's a real baby, enjoying the singing!

Spec1alk Mon 09-Nov-20 11:23:31

Oh Christmas concerts! Brought back so many memories, and yes, there was always one child slightly behind the beat who sang loudly to catch up! Wonderful?

My best friend just relaxing after her long walk. She puts a smile on my face when I see her each day morning. I rescued her and she rescued me right back.

Sparklefizz Mon 09-Nov-20 11:54:49

Gorgeous Alioop. The same with my rescue cat ... we rescued each other.

Bathsheba Mon 09-Nov-20 12:09:08

Oh my lord, shysal my DH and I have been crying with laughter at that little girl!
(Not my post, mistymitts but thank you for drawing my attention to it!)
