Why the sarcastic comment about people shielding and disinfecting their shopping ie me? Are we to blame for lockdowns and the covid pandemic? Should we have just followed the wonderful example set by Sweden ? Who are now in a big mess infection wise?

I haven’t enjoyed any of the 14 months but made the best of it and kept to normality as much as possible but I m fairly pragmatic and just keep plodding on and not getting too uptight about it all
Wish my seedlings would go a bit faster though

I’m fed up with the Plague and Lockdowns, I want to get back to Normal but everything I need to do is on a waiting list.
45 minutes for the doctor’s receptionist to answer the phone.
3 weeks wait to speak to a doctor or have a blood test.
16 weeks between Covid jabs 1 and 2.
5 weeks wait for a optician’s appointment - I need new glasses after 6 months of problems and 2 operations.
6 weeks wait for my new cooker, which arrived faulty.
3 months waiting for a new hedge to show any signs of life.
Most of 2 months without rain.
Is life as frustrating for everyone, apart from those who have enjoyed 13 months of total isolation, spraying their shopping with anti bacterial spray?
