Coronavirus (Covid 19)

Such a shame that the situation is worsening all around.. Stay safe everybody! And the German sector here - keep us updated, and hoping to see you in Cologne!

Will do...Rockpalast has announced yesterday that they will be streaming both shows live - they seem to be pretty optimistic. So maybe...just maybe...

Very happy to hear you are feeling ok - and I hear you about "enjoying" quarantine. The idea of not having to feel guilty about sleeping in and  reading...aahhh, bliss. But I would have to walk my dogs, this might be a big problem, so I guess it wouldn't be all this good for me.

Aaaww come on, you have DOGS!! Dogs are like, the best creatures on earth!  I have multiple allergies so no dogs or cats... But I do have a plethora of houseplants, they're awesome! Although my friend, when he heard about my quarantine, said my houseplants are probably traumatized by constant company of Me, as they probably remember previous lockdowns  They're still alive and well though

Oh, I am afraid our place would be your own personal nightmare  At least with regards to the allergies.
5 dogs, short haired, long-haired, from ages 3 1/2 to almost 16...and then there are 4 rabbits and 6 guinea pigs - yep, all of them in the house - but with very strict safety measures regarding the separation of dogs and rodents. 
It IS awesome...and messy...but mostly awesome. 

I guess plants are probably a bit less messy - but I do see your friend's point.  Plants are supposed to be super sensitive, or so I have been told (mine seem quite tough, actually) - so who knows if maybe they'd prefer a bit more privacy?  Sounds as if you're all getting along just fine, though.  And plants ARE awesome!

Finally received the test result at five o'clock this morning - I'm back to my negative self! I just phoned my doctor and he gave me even better news; I can go back to work -tomorrow- as he can terminate the sick leave only starting the next day... what a pity! So I opened a beer, and after finishing this one I'm planning to celebrate further by going back to sleep.

Glad to hear you are now allowed to leave COVID jail, enjoy your day of freedom.

 Cheers

Now this is what I call good news- very happy for you! :-)

we are now at the fourth wave in Germany, so bad that they are sending patients in Italy (my native country) too, similar to what was happening (on the other way around) last year. But last year with no vaccines I got no covid nor they got it most of the school kids of my daughter s class. Now in the last 3 weeks the class has been decimated by positive cases. My daughter got it, my wife, her mother who came to help while I was abroad for work..and myself as soon as I came back or almost. I came back to a flat where there were 3 positive persons. I mean.......with all my strength and efforts it was impossible to avoid.
The first week was no fun, the week end the worse. The second week was no good but ok. Now I am negative (and all the others family members too) I just still have my throat inflamed and f up but not sure it is the covid or only this also probable the weather cold etc. cold and wind. that s what one gets in berli n usually.
<now no idea but new variants are appearing............I do not see the end of this thing as far as now.
for sure it changed a lot for me. life in general. what before was normal to do now it is no more: seeing friends and going out going to gigs bars etc. i also have lost a bit of interest in all this no idea.
Beside a new model army gig. with a normal health situation..................I always go crazy during a new model gig.
I hope it will happen again soon.
I need that.
best to all
Simon

Simon, sorry to hear you've had such a bad time.. Wishing all the best to you and your family!
And yes, going nuts in gigs is essential to mental health... we need it... Let's hope for the best, the sooner the better

We are all good now but the thing is in December 2021 we have more cases in the class of my daughter (Berlin) than ever before. And the new bloody variants etc. unbelievable. a nightmare. and I need a New Model Army gig. old school one.
