6th September 2020

 It’s now six months since we were forced into lockdown as a ‘vulnerable’ couple. The entire globe has been affected, millions have died, a disaster for every nation’s economy, school education and tourism, yet for some unfathomable reason still no word of global condemnation for the perpetrators, especially from the unbiased WHO.  Many pics of lonely 5 year olds at school, sitting all alone at lunchtime, separated from their friends whilst eating from a box. Ambiguity and uncertainty abound over what’s allowed and vice versa. Last week we went out on a rare trip to take advantage of the government’s ‘eat out for half price’ scheme. Staff wore masks but, of course, diners can’t to enable them to eat! Where’s the logic when the virus can easily pass from one diner to the next? And outside, smokers indulged their habit, masks sitting around their necks. Plenty of signs where not to stand, but not where you can. Now that deaths from the virus seem to be lessening, time to ditch everything à la Sweden?
