@Skyebaby8Susan @andr3wmorton @edinburghpaper They clarified this morning nurseries are included in the lock down. Unfortunately pre schoolers can’t be looked after via Skype so it’s back to trying to work and childcare concurrently...

@FactTank Yea. No kidding! I'm overseas & calling people in the US but bc I'm using Skype or a PAYG service (varies country to country) ppl don't answer bc they don't recognize the number. Hey, answer the damn phone! If you don't like what you hear, hang up! Easy-peasy. Don't be scared.

I totally forgot about the extended promo after they didn't upload it last night. Looks good, but I can't help but be disappointed that Sami is going to find out about Allie's **** over Skype or whatever. #Days

Two different routers plugged into the same @MediacomCable cable. Same symptoms. IP for 20 seconds, then no more IP, only L3. Support has so far blamed this on everything that's not a problem in @MediacomCable's IP network. Sorry mom. No @Skype for COVID-Christmas.

Dear @MicrosoftHelps: I can't login to my Skype account and when I try, it says it will send an email to reset my password. No email arrives. When I try to do chat help to speak to a person, I have to login first... but I can't do that... because, that's my problem. Help?!!?

@EleanorRylance If we are in lockdown they will need to negotiate via Zoom/ Skype etc. This last minute change will just run the clock down and either leave with no deal or extend the transition period or cancel altogether

@KlotzBets If her family can't understand that's their problem not hers or yours. If they want to gather so badly, let one of them host. It's better to forgo it this year so the gathering next year can include everyone and be bigger and better. There is always zoom or Skype or FaceTime.

@BitchassMcGrass maybe computer manufacturers are paying Discord, Spotify, Steam, Skype, NordVPN, uTorrent, Blizzard, Origin, and Twitch to clog up memory at login so people think their computer is broken so they buy a new one

All I need for Xmas is a new laptop- and anyone who wants to buy an Skype show I can do it on my phone - or custom to help.... or donate or even buy me an Xmas gift. I’d be forever grateful.

@JoBo1806 Does using Skype/zoom or whatever help? Just have them there to chat while you do daily stuff may help. We're planning family bingo nights in the weeks ahead.

@RaheemKassam I was always intrigued by the sudden popularity of zoom during Covid lockdown. Whatever happened to Skype? Zoom basically came out of nowhere and were how businesses small to large continued to operate during the shut down, so who knows what the CCP learned while easedropping...

@dtConfect I completely and utterly agree, I know it's nowhere near the same, could you Skype your parents? Something better than nothing I guess. Boris couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery let alone the country 🙄 anything I can help with give me a shout.

@britandjack i prefer to make fun of how slow it is and have a "not that upset" low grade moan and an excuse not to do zoom or skype. People are far too solution-focussed these days. I prefer to live in the problem and laugh at my predicament

@iamtkiam @CheriDiNovo Bro no is out here physically forcing you to stay away from immediate family and to follow the procedure.

In-person meetings help foster relationships in a way that Skype or conference calls often do not.

@CStewartSHS Terrible year. Perhaps if you plan Xmas dinners for the same time you could join together via Skype. Can’t pull the crackers together but you could share the jokes. It will be a different Christmas for many but for many no change. So many people on their own. X

@sturdyAlex We’re quite lucky in that I’m a scientist so I’ve been preparing my family for a Skype Christmas since summer, but I am so angry for all the people who Johnson mislead with his false hope. You need to be able to trust the prime minister and he’s let the country down so so badly🤬
