Found this thread on Twitter. I offer it to anyone who is finding Covid restrictions hard to bear.
OP - Day 7 of the lockdown. My daughter has re-discovered her recorder.
This tweet seems to have struck a chord, no pun intended. Some responses -
- Recorders have their place. It's called the 16th century.
- And you didn’t throw it out anytime in the last six days because?
- First rule of lockdown is to destroy the recorders
- I’m pretty sure hammers were invented for this purpose.
- Break it now. Accidentally step on it, get the dog to chew it, do whatever is necessary.
- It's probably one of those plastic ones. They're meant to be made of wood. Wood burns so you can dispose of them safely.
- The batteries might run out. Just saying.
- Recorders can get lost very easily. Their slim physique enables them to be wedged deep down in between couch cushions.
- A shame that by day 8 the fairies, having heard her sweet music, stole the recorder in her sleep and took it for themselves.
- I hid one in lockdown, it was then found and so I said it was an “outside toy”.
- That’s genius. “An outside toy.” Applying it to the harmonica and the gazoo too.
- My mother had a household rule that I could only practise my recorder if one hand was touching the back fence.
- This reads like a war diary
- Sounds like fresh new hell ....
- Godspeed
- Thoughts and prayers
