Personal Responsibility

If you are seen on the street,
not taking PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY,
to prevent catching and spreading this dreaded disease,
You Are Giving The Government An Excuse To Enforce MARSHAL LAW On EVERYBODY,
so protect yourselves seriously when you are out on the street,
if not for your own health, but to ensure our already limited liberties.
Rights are like grains of sand everybody.
Once you let them slip through your fingers, they are difficult if not impossible to retrieve.

wise words indeed Billy, we are on lock down for 21 days and it seems to be having an effect - no one can enter or leave our Island as we have no planes and only the ferry bringing supplies, streets are pretty quiet, we can have a walk/ go to the shop for essentials but otherwise are at home, today we had 1 new case - a real drop for 38 in 2 days last week. If we work together we can make a difference:-) hugs Jan xx
