another no shutdown place.

My parents are back in London, they got the hell out of Hong Kong in late December, days before Xmas, as the rumours were already flying round the investment banker network there. My brother is also in London atm, so those 3 are in lockdown and safe (as they can be).

We are fine so far, but I do not want this shit to blow up here all because we have bloody bellends in charge, who are driven by this inane 'reverso-world Trump' PC and gutless in terms of taking real hardcore action.

Pack of duncey berks, grrrrrrrrrrr.

Hope you are safe n' sound, my dear Peggy.

Not to worry.

It really helps if you don't worry, especially over things that you have no control over. Only worry about stuff that you can influence!

It will save you and your precious energy.
