Hello???? It goes on 24/7 every day of every year. The pandemic has heightened what already exists.

Suffering isn't just for pandemics - like dogs aren't just for Christmas.

Art, you've had the whole of your life to do something for others, not just in the middle of a pandemic - which is a year on now BTW, so you've had plenty of time to do something if you care so much.

But wait - the volunteer forms are too intrusive you say, so you won't do it. Which does rather speak volumes about how truly caring one might or might not be.

Oh why don’t you just shut up!

How do you know what l do in my daily life. You know why? Because l don’t come on here and brag about it.
Pesta, you know nothing about me or what l do.

Also, l didn’t highlight anything. It doesn’t seem to work on my iPad!

Re: Rant alert - re Lockdown!

My opinion is my own, you may try and change my opinion, I don’t mind that, in other words try and see outside of it, other than that, please don’t force your opinion onto me, it’s called respect, the rows my son and I, used to have over opinions, we have both matured in that area, no longer do we force the other,to believe that their opinion is higher/ right than the other......

We now agree to, “ agree to disagree”.....it’s all this “finger pointing “ so unnecessary.....but, on saying that, we all get off days, when we take what is said personally.

Re: Rant alert - re Lockdown!

To avoid confusion I don't help anyone except family and a couple of neighbours, I never answer the phone, except my mobile, because only those close to me have my mobile number so it must be urgent, but they very rarely call me because I hate phones and they know it......If people want me they know where I live, or they can get a message to me on the forum where I mostly hang out......

It's not your fault if people can't control their emotions Tabby, I agree with everything you said in the O/P....
