We’ve never clapped but this by no means means that we don’t support or appreciate everything the NHS has done and continues to do.
Every Thursday at 8pm since this clapping started, we’ve pinged one of our frontline NHS relatives and sent something to make her smile, be it a photo, a joke, just telling her we love her.
We have five close relatives who are frontline, three of whom work 12 hour shifts in full PPE.
We also, both of us, looked into volunteering for the NHS but found they were overwhelmed with offers.
There are, in my opinion, far more useful and personal ways of supporting the NHS.
I’m glad it’s stopping before it becomes more about the clappers than it does the NHS.

We've been clapping too every week and probably next Thursday will see an end. However when (?) we are not in lockdown anymore - we are having a street party. Some of the neighbours have begun a little organising and I can't wait.
There'll be balloons, food, drink and music and I hope laughter. I have made a little notice of the music I want played.
1. Please Release Me let me go
2. Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak tree
3. Somewhere over the Rainbow
4. You'll never walk alone.
There's loads more but that'll do for now LOL
Do you wanna come? LOL
