Hey Lugum, that time extension sucks, well, I guess it's happening everywhere...
...lockdown here in NZ officially starts tonight (in less than 1hr, for 4 weeks. We have had severe social distancing in shops for the last 48hrs and a bit of chaos as usual, with people buying up stuff, but asides from that everyone seems fairly prepared. Only time will tell I guess.
Take care my friend.

Thank you.
Offcourse stores will have plenty in stock, but i am afraid if it continues too long, and people at distribution centers or factories can't work or it's grinding to a halt, eventually we will get (food) issues, it's not like any country can get it from other countries now.
You take care too.

Meanwhile in Sweden, I was at a bar two days ago which was full, nightclubs are still open (saw my friends being in one), outside everything are as usual, maybe a bit less people in the shopping centers but in the parks there are just as many people as before the pandemic. My school is closed but schools for children under the age of 16 are still open.

Our ski resorts are still open, and since the ones in Norway are closed everyone goes to the Swedish ones instead. There are already a handful of confirmed cases originating from the resorts.. Let's hope we took the good choice (not doing like everyone else by locking down) in the end, but I'm sceptical when the rest of the world is on lockdown while we are relaxed.

best of luck, again. here in italy we are still under a complete lockdown - which seems really effective for the regions of central/southern italy which hadn't been affected by the first huge wave of deaths in the north - so even towns in the mediterranean south which are always hot and full of tourists and city life all year long now are completely empty, we have police at every border and we can't go out of the town in which we are (we can't even get back to our parents' home and in general we can go outside only for severe health reasons, work reasons (if someone can work..) and reasons like grocery shop once a week, we can't even walk more than 200metres outside and fines are huge - if you're caught driving without a reason the car gets automatically taken by the police and you're accompanied by them at your residence). So it's really like war time, as our elders say, when they had to stay all the day under trees and structures in order to avoid american bombings, so that if an area got bombed the other men could take care of women and children in the house bunkers.. well let's really hope everything settles sooner or later, it seems that someone is starting to take this thing seriously..

Not sure how much the boss feels about it, if that means i stay even longer home (i am basically volunteering, while keeping wellfare so think its okay).
Got diabetes and a heart thing so i am basically a risk factor too, and wouldn't be the only one staying away there, it's more the gap in my cv i am creating again and the possibilty of companies closing down (and thus again less chance for a company giving me a chance).
And i finally found something on a grey site that kept helping me sleep a bit and calm and now our great government managed to also find time to just totally banish that (and i understand it being for dirty/tainted xtc and that crap, hard drugs are just bad, but what i had is basically close to what you would get from a pharmacy).
Okay i adjusted the title a bit, we aren't in official lockdown but after sunday when it was sunny, a lot of people went outside close together. in which our government took drastic actions.
F.e if we are now with more then 3 people together on the streets (even family) you risk a fee of 400 euro, also birthday parties with more then 3 visitors are forbidden and basically most of us still can't work till june 1, so we are / it still feels like being (semi) locked down.
I did grocery shopping in 3 different stores saturday and even there many don't give one bit about distance, although many stores got aisles so small you can't even avoid eachother.
So many youngsters that do not take things seriously, and not care or think about, risk spreading it to other (elderly) people, i am sure if these steps not help, our government will gonna put us into an official lockdown next.
But i think for most countries who had april 6 will have going to have that date moved, and i think personally it's even gonna take longer then june 1.
Anyway mysterious song.
Sorry if i missed some replies, i been trying 2 mesh systems without much luck unfortunately so had moments without wifi, and busy with other stuff.
