Not so, Rooge. We know how lucky we are. We have a garden, we have each other, we have scenery close by to die for and we have a police force which keeps a low profile in a very uncrowded area. Can't remember where but I've already posted sympathetically about people with kids in flats and no garden, etc, who desperately need to get out into their local green spaces. Even if they have to drive there. We do our best round here to help people who can't get out, by doing their shopping for them etc., and by keeping in frequent contact with elderly people who live on their own. We spend several hours every day keeping our grandson occupied on FaceTime (we live over 200 miles away from them) so that his mum and dad can work from home. We live in times when doing your bit isn't always exactly easy, but Mrs Steve and I do our best, thanks. I wouldn't be posting in this vein but for the insinuation that we're just lucky bastards who hardly bother to spare a thought for others less lucky. Best to avoid the judgemental stuff. Cheers.
