I see a bus pass every day with an advert on the side for the Trolls movie, coming to cinemas "April 6". It's like Groundhog Day.

Lockdown happened just in time or I'd have been to see the fucker twice by now.

Don't worry, you can see it at a drive-in cinema next week.

I don't drive so this gets better.

D-Mal off to the cinema:

Did we ever found out if that guy was actually served in the end?

I highly doubt he would have been. When I worked for the clown (Ronald Mcdonald, not Boris Johnson) it was a very strict rule. A fender bender in a drive through becomes much worse if its a guy in a cardboard box.

I had to walk through a KFC drive-thru once, as they'd closed the restaurant because of their being a football match on.

In fact, it must have happened more than once, as there was an occasion where I was stood behind a car, but in front of a horse.

I remember going to a McDonalds in Southampton late at night that had a little window like a drive through for people to order at. I couldn't tell you if it was a drive through in the day or purpose built for the safety of the restaurant at night.

Itll be interesting to see how gyms will re open, i go to a familly run place thats already small and the machines are packed in tightly

They won’t unless they can space everything by 2m until the rules change

Biggest single thing I've missed in the lockdown has been access to the gym. I feel it's done notable damage to my physical and mental health. I've walked around 500 miles in the lockdown since I started monitoring it and have still put on a chunk of weight. Really need them to make this more of a priority as I don't think it's just me.

Have you tried doing a 15-20 minute HIIT video off Youtube? I found this has been a great way of keeping active whilst the gyms are closed as like yourself, I am missing the gym in a big way. One positive from lockdown is that it has given me a chance to focus on other areas of exercise which I had previously zero experience in. I would never have thought of doing a HIIT class before whether that be online or in person, you feel the benefit straight away and you feel so happy you have done it afterwards.

Yeah, a few have suggested it. It's probably worth a go. Took me so long to find a routine that actually worked that it's frustrating to then have it taken away. Thanks man.
