On est tous des pangolins
I was going to work on my French, get from being able to just about get by over there, up to decent conversational level.
Errr, bonjour.
Moi aussi.
Tales of failure. What skills or achievements did you hope to acquire during lockdown?

Are you always like that though? Someone who gets things done that they plan to do?

That proves my point then. We've all behaved perfectly normally.
I generally do fuck all and have maintained that attitude.

ugh... that's enough butchering of the Japanese language for now.
With my mind filling in the sentence particles by reaching into the dark bag of my memory i can't imagine how horrific i'm sounding.

I'm planning on getting it right second time around, sometime in October/November.

Yup. I did what I intended but that wasn't much.

I had a long list of things I was going to do to the house... Then the reality kicked in, work went mental and I have had no time to do anything 
I've learnt loads of new work skills I suppose. I had no choice though as my job changed overnight. My guitar playing has improved as I've been playing a fair bit more to try and switch off for a bit

Addicted to handstands!
Didn't have any plans as such, apart from staying sane. Managed to give myself tennis elbow while repainting the garden fences 
but also managed to stay sane, daily exercise and didn't eat too much sugar/crisps. My guitar playing has improved, I finished another level of my Udemy guitar course (although I had been doing that prior to lockdown anyway). I'm, theoretically at LCM level IV now, I only started playing the guitar over two years ago. Although I have a suspicion I wouldn't pass the actual test for grade IV if I took it.
What else... I taught my 4 year old grand daughter to do cartwheels and now we've moved on to handstands, also doing a fair bit of reading/writing with her.
Our grass is literally very green as I've been taking good care of it smug

Nothing of what I wanted to get done (type up my grandpa's diaries and memoirs, try all the video games I have bought but never touched, learn how to play Go and/or Mahjong, lose lots of weight)
HOWEVER
I have helped Mrs SI in dumping over a decade's worth of stuff (filling a skip), bought a new guitar which has got me playing again, been eating more cereal, apples, dates and bananas, started a project to record some of the songs I've written over the years, and haven't had my back to the family playing video games very much (in fact I've not played anything for a week now and had a couple of days where the PC didn't even go on).

real life adventure worth more than pieces of gold
I was going to cycle about the place getting super fit, learning all about how to be on the road and things, when there was no traffic (cos lockdown). But I first bought an irreperable heap of junk that gave me a few hours of the freedom of the roads, followed by something that would be infinitely better, but that might arrive at some point in the distant future, should the planets be aligned correctly.

Enough to convince people who don't play that I can
It's like superheroes, if you are into it after about 12 you ought to be ashamed. I'm into kids stuff like star wars and football and playstation, but I have shame. We are meant to think that Last of Us is interesting lol, no
Everyone says 'interesting times' but it's actually the most boring times in the world
