Shame for Scott, but he’ll train and keep fit in the time he is isolated. I think the season is over for all players, fit, unfit or those in vulnerable groups. Scott will be back playing for Hibs as well as he is at present.
I’m 73, widowed and type two diabetic and am resigned to a few months of isolation. I’ll make sure I get out and about during this time and will play plenty of golf and walk a lot. I’ll still meet friends and family at a very safe distance. The thing I’ll miss most is cuddles from the grandkids. Life will go on.

Good luck Jim.

My wife is in the same boat as she’s type 1 diabetic and I’m currently not sure how we are going to deal with it.

I wasn’t sure what the ‘rules’ were on going for walks in quiet places where there won’t be much human contact, I’m sure I heard that was still a bit of a no go but I can’t think why?

I’m also conscious that I’ll be going out to work and our boy is going to school and coming home to her, I’m not sure how that can be avoided though.

It’s a hell of a scary time, I just keep trying to remind her, and myself, that in the greater scheme of things it’s not a huge amount of time, the next three months will feel like an eternity though.

Thanks, b70. We’re all pretty much in the dark but I’m confident that fresh air and walking in quiet areas is fine and, in my opinion a good thing for physical and mental health and getting rid of cabin fever. Best wishes to you and your family.
