“Look, we said you’re not infected, not that you’re immune. We realise that you, the great British public, have the attention span of a gnat on Sunny Delight, and that you have seen that the powers that be value your well-being rather less than they would said gnat, but the virus has the attention span of a virus. It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop… ever, until you are dead.”

Yes, itizz. Plus, the first horse racing fixture will take place on Monday, in Newcastle. No crowds of onlookers, we’re told. Mr Bee and I have decided that the haphazard nature of the Government’s proclamations and the equally haphazard translations of them will necessitate greater vigilance on our part, forra while.

Yes  
We’re busting a gut to do the right thing, at great personal cost & stress, for others to think that they are the exceptions.

Had messages from the campsite today. Friends were raising a glass to me

Good news from IoM today - with no positive tests for 14 days (everyone here with symptoms has been tested throughout) and no-one now being treated in hospital for CV-19, there are now no known active cases on the island.

c84,000 people are holding their breath. And remembering the 24 who died.
