I know I know…… our favourite columnists have shared and reshared their advice. How to have fun on them, how to get off them, how to avoid them,
Everything has a short shelf life just now but here are a few ideas and you’ll be delighted to know there’s no game or quiz, You may have to make yourself look a bit stupid! And no I don’t mean get tipsy. That’s a given.
· Wear a garland of flowers– you can’t fail to feel better. Click on the title above. Jump on your call looking like you’ve just drunkenly climbed out of a flower bed or returned from a ‘hen’ party - the garland headband is also a great zoom gift. Massive plus - positioned correctly it conceals ones roots! When off duty your garland looks lovely draped somewhere
· Get the fancy dress bag out. Putting on a wig not only makes everyone laugh (at you) it generates wig reminiscing chat. Not who were you supposed to be that night? More, where did you end up that night?
· Everyone tells a true or false humiliating/unbelievable story (do check whose on). Think ‘would I lie to you’. For me, at the moment, this is easy, I just tell the truth about my faux pas on work zooms………………yes the video was on….. thank goodness I didn’t unpack my nose, not even with my little finger.
For me, Its all about generating conversation about something other than C and LD.
Delight your friends on your next zoom or send them a surprise garland.
Finally, my TOP TIP - lets think about getting out of our joggers and putting a bit of make up on girls! Lets get ready for when we are finally let out! And maybe even some Jewellery! Yes indoors….
