Corona Virus: How Are We Doing?

[Joey Shabadoo]

Just had the email from work ordering us off the road and to work from home for now.

Rode a TT today in Yorkshire. Things looked no different to normal there. Maybe because they're fairly sensible and healthy people taking part?

Rode (badly), had tea & cake, chatted. Son no. 2 won £20 as 1st Junior/Juvenile male.

The locusts seem to have descended on our local Co-op, nae bog roll on the shelves.

Maybe 6.02am is a tad early... I'm not getting the bog roll restocked until at least quarter past.

I reckon we will have another week before we get the shout.

There is a suspected case reported on Mull about 10 miles from me and the person is self isolating. A local taxi has announced on Facebook that he is off the road and self isolating. I chatted to him last Thursday so I am probably doomed.
The reactions of potential tourists is interesting when they ask about coming in the next week or two from areas where there are numerous suspected or confirmed cases. Some people are telling them to stay at home and their reaction is very stroppy.” I will certainly never ever come near your island again and spend the fortunes I always bring with me “seems to be a common reaction to a perfectly civil suggestion.

Some idiots about.

A colleague has had her tiny bottle of hand sanitiser stolen - really ?

Office very empty as those staff without laptops are testing connectivity on their own devices this morning - so there is just 5 of us in out of over 20.

Makes me want to come and spendlots of money there. Unfortunately I don't currently have any money, and we're surrounded by confirmed cases so I probably shouldn't come, but still...

Work has upped the ante..
No visitors, bar a single family member, and only after staff interaction to check all's ok, how they will know ?
No access to anyone other than staff and health care workers.

Being a tourist brings with it some social responsibility to the local population, and I do always try to drop a few pounds wherever I go.

But I am not a big spender for the rest of the year, and don't turn into one on holiday.

And I certainly don't think I am doing the locals a favour by visiting their area.

Visiting somewhere is just a cost/benefit transaction like any other in which I try to minimise the former and maximise the latter.

The home my wife works in stopped any visitors last week, it's staff and visiting health professionals only now.
I'm a little confused by yours, you say only one visitor but then say no access, are the visitors only allowed in communal areas or something?

Tourists in general have no social responsibility. Their attitude too often is “ I am a tourist and I will do what I want regardless of your wishes”. We used to have visitors rather than tourists who had your attitude of responsibility. There are still some but swamped by the masses.
