Monday 6th April 2020 – People’s choice Limerick – while we fight Covid

The village where Shirley resides

Held a Limerick Comp with a prize

She suggested the same for this site

So vote in the comments for your fav-our-ite

Cos our mums just can’t be denied

Coronavirus is a traitor
It tries to make you meet your maker
So see you later alligator
And don’t forget the toilet paper

(Shirley – my mum)

An Ode to Social Distancing

A fit young man from B&B,

Was determined to stay virus-free,

So he swam alone in the dark,

and was taken by a shark,

Now he’s the healthiest corpse in the sea.

(Ian)

Being holed up I’m losing my mind,

But I’m resigned to just staying confined,

What I need is a swim in the waves,

But instead we must stay in our caves

Till the day we’ll no longer be fined.

(Danny)

There once was a food market in China

Where a bat infected an old timer

The bat carried a virus that was worse than hepatitis

The world stopped in its tracks because of this caper

Except for the people who ran out to buy toilet paper

(Steve)

What the hells going on out there?

Corona once referred to a beer

Toilet paper’s run out 

Our jobs are in doubt 

Don’t leave home or go anywhere!

(Greg)

There once was a virus from China 

That spread like a tentacled hydra

You sniffed and you sneezed 

You coughed and you wheezed

And wished that you felt a bit finer.

(Charmian – Ali & Clair’s mum)

There was a young lady called Karen

Who had a twin sister called Sharon

They liked to eat noodles and had two poodles

Whose names were Shanyqua and Darren

(Leila, Max & Tara – written while socially isolating in the spa)

Oh how can I enjoy B&B 

When my friends I can longer see?

I vicariously talk on the cloud

As Viber and Blog are allowed

To virtual Smurf,  Drinky, Roger and Fi

(Jo & Simon)

Staying fit in the days of covid

Required thought in what Sam and I did

We swam 2 metres apart

With green lights in the dark

And straight back to Netflix or our kids

(Simon & Jo)

Don’t panic as we all steer this Titanic.

BOTB

A reminder: The  Bold &Beautiful swim has been suspended until further notice.

If you are out and about at this time, please take care, be safe and adhere to recommended guidelines.

Swim Log

It is OK to log your swims while the B&B is suspended, but there will be no badges awarded while the suspension applies.

B&B Blog

In an effort to keep you engaged during this difficult time our blogging team want to hear from you. Our bloggers have free reign during this time, so if you have photos or anything interesting to share, you can send it to our bloggers at boldandbeautifulmanly@gmail.com. Show us how you are spending your time in isolation.  What is your favourite B&B memory or photo? Tell us why you love the group so much. We will share your stories and photos on the blog over the coming months.  Please show your appreciation of our blogging team by commenting at the bottom of the blog.  It is also possible that, in these difficult times, you have a need that someone in the B&B community may be able to fulfil (eg do you need somewhere to live, are you isolated and need help with shopping, or have you run out of toilet paper?). Feel free to ask in the comments at the bottom of the blog. Above all, stay safe.

Bluewater Cafe

Like all restaurants, Bluewater Cafe has had to limit its activities to takeaway only. I am informed however that they will still provide the B&B breakfast for you to takeaway. The new owners Jane and Kwan have continued to support the B&B so let’s try and help them through this difficult time.  Find more details on their current menu and operations on their Instagram page @bluewatercafemanly (Facebook page coming soon).
