[00:23]	schestowitz__	Birthdays are rare, time to show we care,
[00:23]	schestowitz__	To forget would be unfair, at the calendar to stare,
[00:23]	schestowitz__	Some people grow up, some only in age,
[00:23]	schestowitz__	Some people find solace, in a job inside a cage
[00:23]	schestowitz__	Family, however, is another thing altogether
[00:23]	schestowitz__	Family isn't caging, it's about coming together,
[00:23]	schestowitz__	On this very special day I want to sincerely wish,
[00:23]	schestowitz__	A special happy day, with a cake or a nice dish :-))
[00:23]	schestowitz__	--poem to my sister (a birthday today)

[11:39]	schestowitz__	> Hope all is well and you are coping ok in these unusual times. Have you

[11:39]	schestowitz__	> working from home for a year now and have improvised a makeshift gym in
[11:39]	schestowitz__	> my basement. I also go running into the Peak District hills across my

[11:39]	schestowitz__	> the virus?
[11:39]	schestowitz__	> 
[11:39]	schestowitz__	> Speak soon,
[11:39]	schestowitz__	Hi mate,
[11:39]	schestowitz__	Yes, as far as I'm aware we've both avoided it (not even the slightest of symptoms) as we wash everything we buy if fresh, otherwise leave it in quarantine for a few days. Had BT engineers ('open'reach) over twice this month, but we're a room apart with protective gear. In terms of gym, the place is dead... almost nobody there except us, so it feels mostly safe. They shut a month ago and will hopefully reopen next month. It was 
[11:39]	schestowitz__	shut down for 4 weeks in November. When not there we're working out from home with YouTube for motivation/guidance (no equipment).
[11:39]	schestowitz__	I know some people who suffer a lot from this. Especially extroverts. The long "timeout" let me do lots of site-related work this past week, so I can't complain myself.
