Hi, I am a learn to swim instructor in Sydney Australia.
I’ve come down with the shingles and I’ve had it for roughly 7/8 days now.

I have work again in about 48 hours and again 48 hours after that.
Both 6 hour shifts in the water with children as young as 2

I am thinking about taking another 4/5 days off.
I have no fever today for the first time in days but am still very exhausted.

Can I have some opinions on if I should have more time off or go back?

10-12k
I am currently looking at VW golf and Hyundai i30

I drive on rural roads most of the time doing 80-110kms
Roads are good not dirt roads.
Most driving half an hour plus

Point me to the right choice guys.
Want a hatch back if possible, needs to be able to handle highway driving and be able to get to speed.
Will consider a Corolla as well

Downgrading from a ford FG xr6
Wanting smaller but not wanting the interior to feel like a downgrade
I also want a little power.

Should I go
VW golf
VW polo
Hyundai i30
Kia cerato
