Although love is the word dearest, Anne-Lise not all people can achieve it therefore I ask to care because it is easier at these difficult times that all are subject to the same virus. Thank you for your lovely visit! God bless you! Hugs xxx

Apart from the actions of a few idiots I'm reading some very uplifting stories I read yesterday of a priest in Italy that refused a ventilator that his parishioners had bought for him saying give it to a younger person, he died from the virus Stay safe. Tom

A great story with the priest , unfortunately I have a horrible story to tell that happened here in Greece by a non-Greek. He came from a European country and was infected by the coronavirus. He was asked to stay in. He went out and started braking cars. The police rushed to stop him. He cursed them and started spitting them . Twelve policemen are staying in now fearing they are infected! Stories like yours and mine made me write this Quatrain dear, Tom! Please take care of yourself and of others! God bless you and keep you healthy!

Yes, we must. we are now not allowed out unless essential, like food and medicines, and this will hopefully save many lives, we must not be selfish to help the NHS and save lives, stay safe dearest Demetrios, Hugs, Julie xxxxx
