    How can you swim without putting your head under the water?

    Am I losing my mind?

    You’ve not been outside for 14 weeks so it’s not unlikely. ;-)

    I tend to keep mine above the surface. Helps me to do things like breathe ;)

    I feel like I'm gonna stay here forever if people think swimming with your head in the water is "doing it wrong"! Must be something in the water supply.

    In all seriousness, I have no desire to go out. I'm not afraid to, I just have no reason to. I'm perfectly happy being at home spending time with my wife. It's not for everyone, but it works for us. We've caught up on TV shows and movies that we've been wanting to watch for years, we've done a lot of housework, painting etc.
    When the gyms open, that might change. I miss swimming. Had an email today and the precautions they are planning look promising. I'll give it a few days or weeks though after opening to see how it's looking.

    Do you seriously not put your head under the water? That hurts my neck just thinking about.

    Oh it goes under occasionally obviously but in the whole it's on top so I can breathe.

    Generally people hold their breath and then come up for air every 2 or 4 strokes. I can't imagine swimming and trying to keep my head above water.

    The thing for me is, if I have to wear a mask I will. But as a result the only shops I will likely visit are supermarkets. The rest I'll do online, and that's very bad for the shops. It's a tricky balancing act.

    Anytime you want it then it's there
    All you gotta do is stop it
    On the corner and ask
    Say hey you don't live today
    Stop the world
    Stop the world
    I'm getting off

    Or the start .....

    Here comes the wise man
    And there goes the fool
    You see that burnt out world that he is living in
    I don't need to look for the rules

    Same here. I will go to Asda once every 3 weeks and get the bare necessities and that's all.

    I wouldn't be surprised to find meadowhall go under or at least lakeside at Donny, white rose at Leeds, peep retail park at barnsley etc. Quite a few town centre shops will go under too

    I know why they are doing it... they’ve managed to **** a large percentage of society up they are struggling to leave home. So they are using the pretence of a face mask to give this aura of being safe to get people back out into general population.

    Face coverings should have been implemented months ago when the peak was at its highest, not at a placid post coital slumber.
