Metallic taste?

PS when I had rhinovirus (part of The corona family) 3 years ago, I lost the taste of salt. Till this day I can't tell if something is too salty or not salty enough.
Eat oysters.
You'll slowly train your taste again.

Chris I read you must def not over do it as you recover. Studies saying you increase your chance of long covid if you exert/make yourself out of breath before your body is ready. That vid I put up from NZ Dr has some breathing suggestions.

Mate i hope you get over it soon.
I came out of iso on day 8 and played golf in 30degree heat. Next day (sat), my voice sounded likevi was sick again. Today i was back to normal but after mowing lawns (2 properties), hedging, line trimming etc again in 30 degree heat i am absolutely buggered.

I think some symptoms come and go but i reckon you'll feel better tomorrow.

An "administrator" from my sons called me and a few parents today. Asked if school was delayed. Could I (the parent) facilitie remote learning.

Lucky for our parents watsapp group. We all called the administrator back. Said our children would be going to school regardless and we will not facilitie remote learning.

The administrator pushed me saying if one parent can work from home. They should. I politely told the person, both my wife and I work from the office. Prove we don't. I also kindly asked them if during the remote learning period, are the teachers going to lock down? Because if they can go to the pub, go to their friends houses, shopping etc etc, they can go to school and do what they are paid for, and what i pay 6k a year for.

Fair. If they want remote learning the teachers need to be in a bubble - work, home and only allowed out for essential items like food shopping. How is it policed though? I haven’t heard from our schools yet but will be pushing back on remote learning if they suggest it - the last two years have been enough.
