Yes, it was a real plague, unfortunately at first not adequately faced because it was totally unexpected. But from what I hear in the US it's as ugly and deadly. Now things have started to get a little better - or at least that's what they tell us - less people fall ill and die but many still do. One thing I hated most about all this, maybe because I'm ageing myself, is that at first, because only older people fell ill and died, it seemed less important. It wasn't taken lightly, it was alarming, yes, but okay, they were old after all and already had other diseases. Then, when younger people and some teenager fell ill too, one day a journalist or someone said on TV "But what is really important is that now we see that the virus affects young people", as if only at that point the virus became relevant and worrying, and this same concept was repeated by others too and it was considered so offensive that there was a lot of complaining until they had to apologize publicly. But that was the general idea: first class people and second class people. It's a very ugly world we have to live in.
I saw in another post that you resigned. But, isn't it risky? Sorry, I don't want to seem to intrude but you have often said you don't have much money, you even have a tag about it. Do you already have another kind of work in mind? Hey, I've just realized you have a tag about Adam Ant! Heh, I was in love with him in my younger days...
