This morning Dermot & Dave received an email from a listener who was complaining about getting getting any "alone time" with his missus during lockdown.
The email read "
Hi Dermot and Dave.
I've got an issue that some of your listeners might relate to.
So Covid19 has put me, my wife and our 4 kids back in our box and we are coping quite well. But NOBODY seems to be addressing the fact that us parents are now under the constant 24hr monitoring of our 4 snotty, horrible little monkeys.
Let me tell you now that 'love' is not in the air. When oh WHEN can we get some US time... if ya know what I mean. I suggested to my wife that we go out into to the shed and, I dunno, 'make a bird box or something?' but my wife reckons that's not rosemantic at all. Surely there is somewhere I could send my kids for a half an hour or 3 minutes or the likes.
Any suggestions would be urgently appreciated.
Thanks guys.
Stavros, the Italian Scallion."
This lead to a huge response from listeners, who revealed to Dermot how they were getting creative during lockdown.
