Not sure if any of you have seen this post on your social media yet

But I’m sure it deserves a little fab appearance

I’m sure you’re already aware of this. We shall be making a racket in our garden!

******Tonight 8pm *****

Wouldn’t it be amazing if you opened the door and could hear everyone clapping and cheering streets apart ?

Rem_mber Ladies and Gents, on Thursday 26th March at 8pm can you all either stand on your doorsteps or open a window and clap and cheer as loudly as you can for all the frontline workers - NHS staff, carers, teachers, childcare providers, food and medicine delivery drivers, shop workers and anyone else on the frontline, risking their own lives to makes yours better. Let's try and get this around the country ????????

Copy and paste and keep it moving to as many as we can ???????

My downstairs neighbour has asked if we dont do this as she will be an hour home from a 20 hour shift due to our local main hospital being stretched beyond its capabilities

I wonder if it will happen as good as it has in other countries, only thing is in other countries they all show it happening in tower blocks or hotels so it always looks good, they never show it happening in estates like we have here.

Come on nation let’s get the clap together ( no pun intended) x

I think it sounds like a great idea the coming together of a nation

All for one and one for all

Hope you’re staying safe in this epidemic

How is this in anyway showing our appreciation to the nhs I’ve seen a thread earlier about clapping for the nhs what we need to do is abide by the rules the government are telling us and have a bit of common sense hope I don’t come across as an miserable bastard but really next it will be release blue balloons which then burst drop into the rivers and sea and cause mayhem to the inhabitants

No you are being a miserable bastard, it's something that is harmless to anyone been as were not clapping each others hands. Well harmless as long as the animals dont mind us supporting all those that are risking their lives, whether they hear it or not it's just nice for them to know they are appreciated

I’ll be honest my opinion yes you do sound very negative

Shame

There was no mention of going out and socialising for this event uniting in clapping meaning we all think and believe the same Is very similar to a national anthem

Hey I’m not saying you’re wrong

I think it’s a great idea

Venturing into my front step alone , several metres from any neighbours, is hardly breaking any rules

I get your point and agree. While it is a nice gesture if everyone follows the advice they will appreciate it a lot more.

Ps- I do know standing on your doorstep is following advice before people go into one.

no it’s not but I bet the same idiots who are panic buying and still congregating in groups are all out clapping and making noises as I’ve said best we can do to support the fantastic work the nhs is doing is by adhering to what the government are saying

I just got back from my work, had my dinner and wondered what all the noise was as its been so quiet last few nights. I don't do social media but it was some noise. Well done to you all.

PS I'm at work cause I'm keeping the lights on for you all in the strange time we now live in.
