I wa OCD about hygiene before all this crap. Now I can barely function. I've had my doubts about attending but my Mrs insists I do.

Presently eating lunch alone and must've washed my hands five times in the process of making a cuppa and retrieving my food from the fridge. Missing my cafe coffee but probably saving a fortune.

Maybe dirty and slick with sweat from all the long hard work they've done?

I'd imagine if this showed up at gearfest, you'd be super keen to give it a go despite the 60+ years of humanity seeped into its very wellbeing.

Was looking forward to this but got the word earlier that somebody from my office is awaiting a test result for corona virus after coming down sick. Very doubtful that I have anything to worry about but I'd feel like an ass if I somehow managed to share it around. Also I have no strat to show off :p

Have fun folks! And somebody take pics!
