Hello Edward, the virus is still here, now another has also come here. It is stronger than the first. This is scary. We are not over the first one yet now we have two to deal with. Scary. Enjoy your evening my friend.

the virus certainly has taken the world hostage, lets hope we can escape its strangle hold and get back to normal, so sad hearing how it is mutating as spreading despite the protocols that have been put in place:-( hugs jan xx

Unfortunately, it will get even worse before it gets better. Thank you very much for the comments and visit, Jan:-)
