Life gets even more complicated if both you and your wife are retired. This is the situation I'm in and I'm finding it really difficult to think of a plausible excuse to spend anything but the briefest of times away from home.

I'm definitely not 'under the thumb' but I have to be realistic until such time as the lock-down rules become significantly less restrictive. I guess patience is a virtue, but sadly I've found it's a virtue that is in pretty short supply in certain places!! If however you find yourself in a similar situation to me, are in the Midlands and would like to chat just send me a message!!!

You are lucky to have met someone willing to break the lockdown rules. As long as you both stay safe than good luck to you two. However, since you state that you have been working from home for almost a year then it would be very suspicious if you suddenly made an excuse to go into work. This lockdown is far worse than the 1st one and it doesn’t take a genius to sass you out. Be patient and am sure you guys will have a chance to have a proper date in no time.

yes and your partner will be relieved to get some time to themselves and probably encourage you to work in the office more often

Yes it does- as lots of firms are going back into the office for wellbeing

When rules say you can go into work then it’s plausible. . I went into office when booked a day off in July.. 🤫 have been into office since soo was plausible..


ATM I’ll love to go on a proper date, rather than just meet for coffee.... also I’m not 12 and won’t meet anyone in a cold park 😂

I think my man has met someone at the weekend and now we've both tested positive for Covid19! You put yourselves and everyone else at risk...
