I’m genuinely hoping it’s cancelled, and only partially out of laziness. It’ll make life much easier for me at work certainly. But also, I am starting to get a bit concerned that I’m heading to arguably the busiest, most crowded building in the country every day to mix with people from all over the world, some of some are Chinese.
The Chinese have it under control now, I’d be the least worried about them fellas. It’s the Italians that have been coughing and spluttering all over you for the last 4 weeks that I’d be worried about.
I’ve managed to avoid seeing the parents on the pretence of not giving them this flu. Just need to wangle some similar set up with the missus and I’m sorted

“So I’ve been Minister for Health for nearly four years and I’ve learned a lot in that time. And what I’ve learned mostly is that if you listen to your public health advice and public health experts, you won’t usually go far wrong.”
It’ll be terrible if local fantasists and attention seekers don’t get their annual opportunity to be pulled through town on a trailer pretending to be Leo Varadkar with a hand painted sign around their neck.
