Hi @Firefly123 It does feel like ground hog day! But we have made it this far and are starting to see the lockdown being lifted which is great.
How are you doing? -

Hello mate I know your new but can you give advice on how you start posting,69 and not it savvy
-
Hello @Maxsteel have a look at this.
1. The first way is when you login. Click on new discussion.
2. Say you wanted to post in the coffee lounge, select it from the category list you see.
3. Enter a Discussion title, followed by what you want to say in the box below, and click Post discussion.
The second way is when you are browsing the forum. The New discussion option will now appear on right side of the screen (like below), simply click it and it is the same steps as above.
I hope this helps, if you have any questions let me know.

Hi @Firefly123 All is well with me home schooling has been my biggest challenge in lockdown and this wont be changing anytime soon its hard to motivate a 13 year old to learn in a virtual way .
But on a selfish note it is nice having him at home to help and keep me company.
Now we have a bit more freedom at least I can see my boyfriend with the new 'bubble' rules
Take care and keep safe

My daughter can not work online but I've been more doing practical things like measure out the ingredients. I'm still shielding so noth changed for us and all at home, 24/7. It looks like it will be a long while yet. They are actually a lot less stressed and I think it's going to be hard for them to get back into that routine. Glad you are well x

Hello.
I got a letter from my doctor last week telling me I can go out as long as I wear a face covering and keep 2 meters from people... yay! -
