Someone put a note through my door earlier to say she lived in the area and If i needed anything to text, I didn't see her to see if she was fit unfortunately!
I am a slightly high risk but I said I don't need help but If she needed transport or help to let me know.
I set up a whattsapp group with a bunch of friends who live around me for news re: any vulnerable or sick people or neighbours etc
Oh and even though I've told my cleaner to not come round I'm still paying her.
I do most of this shit anyway, help people, easy!
Let ambulance people/paramedics etc get served before me, hell yeh, have even been known to pay for their drinks.
I don't need any memes or quotes to tell me to be a good person.

Various WhatsApp groups round here with everyone helping each other with bits and collectively keeping an eye on the old people.
Have given the council bods details to help with meals on wheels, meds deliveries and that sort of thing but thankfully not at that point here yet.
Going to take the opportunity to get a bunch of work done on my house as well. As good as government response has been to helping people financially, it doesn't cover everyone and there are a lot of good people who will struggle for money/work, so now is as good a time as any

My neighbour is a lovely old dear and I asked her last weekend if she needed any help but she declined.
I used to have some very bizarre and repetitive conversations with her husband who had Alzheimers but he died of cancer a couple of years ago.
She carers and her daughter comes once a week so is sorted thankfully.
She is also rather deaf and doesn't mind my guitar playing.

The clue was in that she had a photo image
Nah, she could blow your flugelhorn as long as she delivered my chips

Put notes through both our neighbours doors offering to get anything they need.
Though self isolating now.
