HI sewmadau, we are in lock down now in Newcastle and listening to the radio today is so disheartening,. At least we're not having thousands like our American friends etc.,
I'm still allowed to go to Mum's which fortunately is only a 5 minute drive away, as I am her carer.
I hope you get your voice back soon, but take the time to heal and rest up. Love Chris
234253Advice given to my first husband, who was a singer, for laryngitis: 1. Keep it wet - sugarless gum, small candies, water, water, water, other liquids. 2. Don't overly warm the throat in winter with heavy layers and scarves. 3. "Shut up." The advice came from his voice teacher who said it was $1,000 worth of advice from his ear-nose-and-throat doctors through the years.
66502I am so sorry about your voice. That must feel awful. It is sad that businesses feel they can raise the prices to make up for their losses. I actually can understand that, but so often they are not being lowered back. We are living in crazy times.
109762You have my sympathy. I used to have chronic laryngitis. So I know how not fun it is to be voiceless. I hope your voice returns soon.
That is just plain crazy to be charging exorbitant prices. I have to admit, I am happy to stay home.
168887W.A sounds lovely maybe next year we can make it over. Here in Sydney we are still in lockdown, it's a shame people don't do the right thing and stay home we have had to miss 5 grandkids birthdays so far this year just hope it will ease before we have to cancel Christmas😢. Stay safe Marian

If you manage to come over for a holiday let me know and perhaps we can meet up
45917Its always good to talk here so glad you have found your voice. The UK is very busy for staycations this year and as I live in a tourist area it is often far too busy for comfort so come Market Day I stay at home. It is difficult for businesses as they have not had a income for ages and just want to get up and running again but overcharging isnt good

I still cannot talk, really strange no cold or a running nose just lost my voice. Our niece is in hospital and I cannot visit her, so I am emailing her every day. She has had a partial knee reconstruction, sent a picture of her legs, looks very painful, from what she said it is but they are giving her lots of pain killers.
114287I am hoping to get to WA in the near future hopefully things will settle down a bit soon. Busselton is on my bucket list as I want to see the very long Jetty.
If we all do the right thing and wear masks and safe distance ourselves maybe the future will look better.
