Cunard's Queen Elizabeth was about to resume sailings, but new crew joining the ship brought Covid on board with them...
Shows how hard it is to "keep it out" despite every possible precaution.
I was surprised on my recent trip to London Its all very well pushing the NHS Track and trace and asking everyone to scan that QR code. I scanned it on multiple times at various locations. It wouldn't work as my postcode wasn't accepted.(its a scottish one) so then the marvelous system swung into action , for some places you were just ushered through, 2 places had the form to leave your details but no pens, use your own l was told , but l had no pen. one place took down my details.and the rest were not really bothered. A charming little cafe l was served by an old dear, she asked "But you will have had both vaccines " l said Yes and im past the 3 week stage , but l just dont have proof on me. " she looked straight at me and said "But you have a kind honest face " l wasn't sure if l should laugh cry or give her a big hug .
As was mentioned onboard Easyjet "We can all help reduce the spread by wearing masks, so we ask that all passengers wear masks"
l was enjoying a cuppa onboard and was finished and nodded off and was prodded by a member of the crew. She was polite, but firm and l was mortified that l had let my regime slip. l must say they were very good in the mask department.
My thoughts were on the poor staff at that football place. dealing with the ******* l fear they might have had a better response by peeing in the wind, and we know how effective that is.
It would be nice to be able to travel like the old days, but l fear those days are long gone.
