#Covid19Crisis

I think we should set up a support group on here (apologies if already done as been away sorting out my school) during this #Covid19Crisis.

We should allocate a time that we all check in and support each other, that is crucial during this time. This will help keep everyone‘s morale up during this crisis.

What about 7pm UK time, if I‘m right in US this is:
12.00 pm PDT
1pm MDT
2pm CDT
3pm EDT

8pm in much of Europe

Any thoughts? Please share.

CocoReads Works for me. Although I‘m mostly at work during then but I‘ll check in when I remember. Btw, I‘m fine and still working, our hospital is slow right now but we‘re predicting we‘ll get some cases later this week. 😬 5y
CocoReads Also I hope everyone is doing well and staying home. 5y

Andrew65 @CocoReads Take care, could always set it a bit later. 😊 5y
CocoReads It‘s fine. My hours are always a bit unpredictable and things may start getting dicier. Hopefully not too dicey. But at this point I doubt much would surprise me. 5y
EadieB @Andrew65 I'm a little confused about the time difference as we just turned the clocks ahead a few weeks ago. Right now it's 2:20 PM Eastern Standard Time in the Pennsylvania area of the US. What time is it where you are? (edited) 5y
BeansPage @EadieB 2 p.m. EST is 7 p.m. in the UK if I'm not mistaken 5y
BeansPage And I think this is a great idea @Andrew65 please let me know how I can help 5y
cobwebmoth Sounds good to me. We have a stay at home order starting tonight, but I've already been staying home since my son is high risk. 5y
BeansPage @EadieB my mistake 2 p.m. EST is actually 6 p.m. in the UK. 5y
EadieB @SumisBooks OK then I suppose you didn't turn your clocks ahead. Actually anytime during the day is good for me as I am homebound and not going anywhere. @Andrew65 5y
IamIamIam I love this, @Andrew65!!! Thanks so much! 5y
Cinfhen It‘s a great idea although I think @TheKidUpstairs is doing something similar. I‘m going to bow out because I‘m in a different time zone and it gets complicated keeping up 5y
TheBookHippie 3 PM EST yes!!! You‘re four hours ahead of us!! 5y
TheBookHippie Hashtag??? 5y
BeansPage @TheBookHippie working on it sweetie. @Andrew65 I just emailed you hun. 5y
Andrew65 @EadieB At the moment 6.54 pm. Clocks go forward on Saturday here. 5y
Andrew65 @SumisBooks Will do, we just have to be there for each other and setting up a time gives us all something to look forward to. 5y
Andrew65 @SumisBooks Clocks go forward in the U.K. next weekend. 5y
Andrew65 @Cinfhen Definitely not wanting to step on anyone‘s toes @TheKidUpstairs 5y
Andrew65 @IamIamIam We just need to be there for each other and have something to look forwards to each day. 5y
EadieB @Andrew65 So right now there is a 4 hr difference but after Saturday it will be back to 5. Ok just so I know! Reminds me of this song....

BeansPage I'm throwing in #DailyCheckIn as a suggestion. Simple and sweet. 5y
Andrew65 @SumisBooks Email not come through yet. 5y
Andrew65 @SumisBooks That‘s the one! 5y
Andrew65 @EadieB It confused me too, as I‘m used to it being five! Missed #24B4Monday discussion before now because the clocks going forward / backwards are in different weeks in the US and U.K. 5y
TheKidUpstairs @Andrew65 not stepping on toes at all! It's all about getting the most support during this time. I think you've got a great idea 😁 5y
BeansPage @Andrew65 I just sent you the email again from my Invader Zim account 5y
Andrew65 @TheKidUpstairs Okay thanks, and I agree we need to be there for each other at this time and come together, even more important for those with underlying conditions who are in the house for the long term 5y
Andrew65 @SumisBooks Got that one, will have a read. 😊👍 5y
jb72 🖖🏻 I‘m still here. The time changes are always weird. I am glad it‘s a bit more light in the evening. 5y
Andrew65 @jb72 Hi 😊👍 5y
Andrew65 @SquidgetsRoom Great 😊👍 5y
Q84 👍😊 5y
Andrew65 @Q84 Thanks 😊 5y
BeansPage We just put up the poster for it. If you're interested please share so we can check in with our friends. 5y
Andrew65 Please share this post everyone. Andrew65's post on Litsy https://litsy.com/p/RUdaMWNlSENN 5y
Ms_T Fabulous idea, Andrew, count me in! I‘m a key worker so I‘m getting plenty of support at work from colleagues, managers and directors alike but I won‘t complain about getting more. Thanks for such a great idea 😃 5y
Andrew65 @Ms_T Best of luck, and thanks on behalf of everyone else. 😊👍 5y
Birdsong28 @Andrew65 Yes I am in. I will need it more than ever now I have been forced to stay home by work as I have asthma. 😭📚📖. 5y
Birdsong28 Keep safe @Ms_T 😘📚📖 5y
Ms_T @Birdsong28 You too, lovely lady. As you‘re an asthma sufferer I‘m glad you‘re at home keeping safe x 5y
Andrew65 @Birdsong28 Thinking of you, although the announcement tonight staying home is for all of us! In my thoughts and prayers. 5y
Birdsong28 @Andrew65 @Ms_T Thank you so much for your lovely words 5y
Birdsong28 @Andrew65 @Ms_T Some of my colleagues are still going in to do stuff in the store and click and collect for customers 5y
Andrew65 @Birdsong28 Out school is still open, like all schools, caring fir children of critical workers. 5y
kezzlou85 Really good idea. 5y
Andrew65 @kezzlou85 Thanks, just know how it has helped staff at our school and kept up morale. 5y
kezzlou85 @Andrew65 that's good. Its gonna be a rough few weeks for us all. I have a good facebook group for my eldest daughters year group and it's been good having others to talk to about teaching our kids and trying to understand it lol. 5y
Andrew65 @kezzlou85 Yes tough times for us all. 5y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Thank y‘all!!! 5y

JacqMac It has been a day! I‘m late to the party, too. But this is a fantastic idea. 5y
Crazeedi Great idea 5y
Andrew65 Great to have you all with us. We are all in this together and need to be there to support each other. @Eggs @Crazeedi @JacqMac 😊👍 5y
GHABI4ROSES I like this because of how AMAZING this group is, period. Is the COVID that you included going to be the handle? And I would tag my regulars, naturally ☺️ 5y
Crewgurl I‘m in 😊 5y
Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES Great to have you with us, the tag would be #DailyCheckIn 😊👍Just over two hours to go! 5y
Andrew65 @Crewgurl That‘s great 😊👍 5y
CoverToCoverGirl 🙋🏼‍♀️Yes please. 5y
CoverToCoverGirl Thanks for the tag @SquidgetsRoom this might just keep me from tipping over the edge. It‘s been traumatic for everyone. I need a physical hug desperately. 😞 5y
Andrew65 @CoverToCoverGirl Stay strong, we all need that physical contact. 😊👍 In my thoughts, sending best wishes. 5y
CoverToCoverGirl Thank you @Andrew65 your kind words are very appreciated 🤗 5y
GHABI4ROSES Blasting out squeezie air hugs! 5y
gradcat @Andrew65 I see I‘m very late...not unusual for me, I know. Is this for every day? I‘m not quite sure I‘m understanding, but I‘ll check the page tonight at 2 pm CDT. At least, I think that‘s right... 🤪 (edited) 5y
Andrew65 @gradcat Yes we are doing it every day during this crisis. Don‘t worry if not free at that time, just pop in any time. 5y
