The haircut thing wasn’t a big deal, to be honest. Lots of people were taking people in for trims through the back door (sometimes they’d even come to you). Luckily no-one I know well died of it but certain family members were extremely ill with it early in 2021 (the vicious Delta variant) so that was quite a scary few weeks. I had to stop checking in on the news (including Sky News) and temporarily unfollow their pages because the continual death-alerts weren’t helpful. But lockdown itself (as a conglomerate) was fine. I actually had some really good times with the people I was living with during the Delta part of the pandemic and as much as things soured later (which I’m still quite angry about) I’ll always be grateful for those experiences.
But as for Covid per-se I’ll be glad to see the complete back of it. I used to keep wearing a mask for niche aesthetic and introvert protection but even I can’t be arsed with it anymore.
