Be Wary - Virus Is Still There.

[marinabrian]

Took the Freelander for a post repair test drive this evening, filled it up with LPG, then on the way home I meandered around Newcastle city centre to gauge how many people were out on the town.

The answer appeared to be not a huge amount.......so much for fears of drunken brawls and suchlike, instead of the anticipated "New Year's Eve" level of celebratory revelry, more like a very quiet midweek night.

Seems as if people are scared of their own shadows for some reason

What was proved, no surprise, "social distancing" goes out of the window in those establishments, but it is understandable.......the answer is still, be wary of all others, and hope that we don't suffer.

I really, really hope that we don't see evidence that proves the distancing was wise advise, if you know what I mean?

Geordies afraid of their own shadow?

Newcastle lads and lasses scared of a little virus.

What has become of the proud inhabitants of the once great county of Yorkshire?

Patently breeding a generation of 21st century snowflakes.

I don't know Gary, but Newcastle is not in Yorkshire

A friend's daughter is due to fly out to Spain next week with a few friends. Apparently she won't be talked out of it and her insurance wont cover anything to do with Covid.

My guess it won't be the holiday she is expecting.

The holiday company has already changed their hotel and they also have to make their own arrangements to get to and from hotel from the airport.

It will be intersting to find out how they get on.

Good luck to them; I love roller coasters, and even though the parks opened yesterday, that and travelling have to be treated carefully, and I think it worth observing the outcome before I endure the ups and downs.

A low figure even for the weekend:
