Notes About The Poem

MY THANKS TO ANDREA FOR SENDING THIS FUNNY TO ME WHICH INSPIRED MY SILLY POEM

Liars

I went to the shops with my bride, Our nakedness we didn’t hide, We followed what folk ask - Just wear gloves and a mask, Both bereft, we stood there and cried! 03/22/20

If we get 10,000 cases we are in trouble - we only have a population of about 85000:-( just trying to keep to 'normality' whatever that is, trying to write and be positve and write silly poems to cheer folk up as we are all in the same boat. Hope the grandchildren are ok, its so hard for the little ones to understand what is going on:-( hugs Jan xx

lol It doesn't bother me as i rarely drink alcohol but many will miss having the freedom to socialise with friends - we are advised not to mix other than with those in our households but if that is what it takes to remain virus free then we must abide with the advice:-) hugs Jan xx

Thanks so much for sending it to me Andrea, we now have 5 cases and the Island is pretty much on lock down - on Island residents can come in from the uk and then they have to self isolate, we can still go out walking but have to remain 2 meters apart so I cant hold my hubbies hand any more!:-) hugs Jan xx

Getting to a critical situation here now we have 5 cases, they are shutting clubs and pubs from midnight and all schools from Tuesday but some will stay open to care for vulnerable and special needs children. they will only allow manx residents to enter - (they have over 1000 uni students still not come home) anyone coming to the Island they must self isolate. Its a scary situation Tom but we must follow the guidelines and try and stay safe:-) hugs Jan xx
