They looked like they could have auditioned for Transpotter. Not one of them had a mask on and the lady offered them the disposable ones. This shop is right opposite the police station.

Long covid is real, the symptoms can be like scarring of the lungs, brain fog, breathing problems, extreme fatigue. The list is vast. Yes Anon, you may survive but what will you be left with following. Lets hope they find a vaccine, all the countries communicate and it is all for free. A global effort to show, everyone is worth it, everyone is kind enough to stay the distance from each other, wear a mask and be kind to one another. Life is hard enough. People need a dose of Jante, rather than thinking and being told they are special. <br />Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10518631542782309728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-11052498511031294622020-09-30T18:59:39.123+00:002020-09-30T18:59:39.123+00:00My great Granny was known to loudly comment on the...My great Granny was known to loudly comment on the bus if somebody had dirty nails that you'd be able to grow peas under them!
