Mother’s Day

Possibly the strangest Mother’s Day ever, where the best gift we can give is to not visit our Mothers.  Where Danish flower growers have asked their government to help, as with an unprecidented drop in sales, they will surely be ruined.  Where youngesters across the world flout the guidelines, high on youthful optimism and the incorrect assumption that they can’t get Coronavirus, and the ignorance of just how many people they are putting in danger.

Lockdown

Rumours are that we will be on lockdown before the week is out.  The message simply isn’t getting through.  Yorkshire police tweeted last night to warn parents who are allowing their children out to ‘play’ / hang out, that arrests may have to happen, unless they start to observe proper social distancing guidelines.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

12 Weeks

It seems like such a long time to some people, but it’s nothing to others.  It’s nothing to cancer patients, to transplant patients, to NHS workers, to all those vulnerable people out there.

We need to act responsibly, we need to act selflessly, we need to act with thought and care for others.  It’s our duty![/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
