Weird World... aka Covid -19, the 2020 pandemic

Last time I posted I had just started training for a half marathon... since then I’ve completed the Stow half twice... both times were amazing experiences. The second of my half’s was about 10 days ago.. since then the world has gone crazy... we are living in lockdown, fighting a global pandemic.... Coronavirus or Covid-19. This is a flu-like respiratory virus which has infected thousands.. of not millions of people world wide. It is an airborne virus which seems to survive for long periods of time on hard surfaces.  In the last 10 days the UK has plunged into what can only be described as a parallel reality... shops have been stripped bare of all products.. including toilet rolls, pasta and flour!  Schools have been closed for the foreseeable future meaning my wonderful y6 daughter may not finish primary school.. we are both currently working from home. It’s wierd being a teacher and not standing in front of a class... instead I’m setting work online either via email
