All bets are off. I was ( and still am ) 100 percent willing and able to lead my crew from Switzerland to England in June. My crew are 100 percent committed and able to do it. It looks like we are going to get the rug pulled from under us, so we won’t be able to do it. It’s like a bad dream, and when push comes to shove, caused by a virus, the likes of which the human race has seen on 6 previous occasions, and they have proved to have been really no great shakes, in the grand scheme of things. This one has appeared in the age of mass social media, and easy movement of populations ( cheap flights etc.) so it’s reached places that it never could have done previously, and been (irresponsibly) reported by people who would never have been given the time of day previously ( because they don’t understand concepts like editorial integrity / standards ) and those things don’t seem to count for anything now anyway. Bingo, perfect storm, the whole reason why social media free reigning is a really bad idea. Their complete hysteria / attention seeking / lookatmeishness, has caused real world massive problems. All any of us can do, is hang the white flags out, and let the idiots destroy themselves, it won’t take long. The rebuilding process might / will do. This is essentially exactly what an all out nuclear war would have done, but without any actual explosions, or any real world damage. It’s a very very odd situation, and I really don’t know where this train is heading. No one does.Peed off I can't sort out the flights for me and my daughter, it was cycling Bilbao - Malaga in May.

I've asked to be moved to another dept. Several staf with health issues have already gone on the sick. I am so manly that I won't know that I've had it.
. As is always the case, these powers will be vaguely worded, open to interpretation and never repealed. Police state anyone? The media here in Asia have just picked up on this and as many Asian nations were under military dictatorships until the ‘80s, they’re basically saying ‘Hang on! We’ve seen this before!’
