At 8.15 I spoke to my mother who is 83. We planned to meet up on Sunday in a park as my young lad and one of her only two grandkids (both my kids) is 9. She called me back at 9.15 to tell me to tell the the young lad she can’t now come but she has his present and will give it to him when this is all over.

Its very hard on older people who take such pleasure out of grandkids. We got two of those free an post postcards in the door from my mother today

Jesus Christ that one really hits you in the feels.

So the experts said.

You broke protocol and boasted about it. The People that travelled to Cheltenham did not.

That hit me right in the feels.

Does traveling to get green count as an emergency medical trip?

Cheltenham 2020 could prove the biggest Irish catastrophe in Irish history, those plague ridden cunts should have been sent to prison

Horse racing should be boycotted after this is all over.

Id say if you looked at that postcard as a piece of art you would say that the spacing of the words reflects the mood…a misjudging of time and the panic to cram in the last few words before you ran out of space

USA break through 100k mark.

They are going to get an unmerciful bout of it.

Yet the deaths are still low.

…tic. She was a woman in very poor health for some time.An interesting piece on the news here this evening was that some boffins estimate that of the total number predicted to die from this scourge in the UK over the coming months, between 50-66% would have died this year anyway even without the virus.

Another of the victims in NI was a 80 year old suffering from dementia in a nursing home, her granddaughter was also in the media. I believe a significant number of victims have been residents in nursing homes where the average stay is around 2 years. In any case it would mean between 33-50% would die well before their time, and 100% without their family around them and with no proper funeral.
