Who clapped for the NHS

[moorside roughyed 2,960]

I did. 

[Angelic Upstart 14]

Yep me and the missus did. Quite a few in our street.

[Bleep1673 1,445]

Yup. Keeping a safe distance from my neighbour.

[distantdog 1,704]

Yes, and lots of the street came out also here in Gateshead, sensibly keeping their distance.

[terrywebbisgod 1,922]

Plenty in this neck of the woods.

[Exiled Townie 274]

Not a good turn out in my street, Out of about twenty odd houses, there was only about half a dozen turned out.  At least all the ladies had a good - if distant - natter before they came back in.

[Futtocks 13,084]

Some turnouts were better than others, it seems.

[gingerjon 11,802]

Our end of the cul de sac did - and it was very nice too. Could hear quite a bit around the town.

[Futtocks 13,084]

I could hear a bit, but I'm at the back of the building, so I don't know what it was like actually in the street.

[moorside roughyed 2,960]

Very well done to everyone who did. This is the hour when we really need our NHS. 

[Bedfordshire Bronco 1,235]

Our entire street was out.... My kids were the loudest! 

[Saintslass 3,712]

Nope.  Nobody did in my street.

[John Drake 5,572]

I went onto the doorstep feeling a bit shy, expecting to be the only one, but the whole street was out there joining in. It was a lovely moment.

Could hear it quite loud round Idle too. 

[Irish Saint 863]

About a third of my street. Also a couple of fireworks.

 

[Willforminis 29]

Plenty of good people out in my street(Dewsbury)

[Damien 8,868]

So everyone that has posted in this positive thread clapped and heard clapping apart from Saintslass. Now why am I surprised.

[Bearman 3,971]

I think my neighbours are taking the pee. Thats the first time they have ever applauded me for putting my bin out.

Seriously a few were out clapping around and some cars tooted. I understand emergency services were flashing their blue lights too

[graveyard johnny 1,740]

I didn't hear any clapping either and due to the strain on the nhs the appointment for my ears syringing has been cancelled too!

[Chrispmartha 1,233]

My wife is a Nurse, she said, quite matter of fact “It’s nonsense, Im just doing my job, if people want to show their appreciation then they should make sure they follow government guidelines and don’t be dicks”

A bit harsh but I do sort of get what she means!

To be honest I know people in the NHS that said the same.

[Dave T 15,443]

Yes. Was really nice, don't mind admitting I had a lump in my throat. Was quite eerie as a really foggy night here. 

[GUBRATS 3,543]

Yep , everybody out , and a few fireworks let over from NY 

[moorside roughyed 2,960]

Great stuff 

[Niels 1,179]

I only do a small role helping patients but I really appreciated it. I clapped for others too.
