Grandson is on half term from next Friday

Usually it’s for a week but the college has decided it’s two weeks !

He usually comes to me and it’s still on

Daughter works from home so his constant need for attention is difficult for her especially when she is working and on a video conference

Soo we are hoping the restrictions don’t kick in and he can’t come to mine

He has pc access at mine but restricted print access because he will print 10 copies and bin 9

It’s his autistic syndrome that gets him very confused

It was and I wonder if it will not have to become more of an economic force once again.

I wonder if we might become more in touch with Earth's resources again.

Maybe we do actually need manufacturing in this country and less service industry.

After all we can’t go on cutting each other’s hair ;-) ;-)

'Bartering' was fairly popular in its time.

This virus is just going on and on and we are quite evidently, not on top of it anywhere in the world.

If and when it does subside the whole world economy is going to be devastated. I am just wondering if it will be the end of capitalism. It will almost certainly be the end of capitalism as we know it but what will replace it? I don't think we will be able to go back to paternalism, more's the pity, but whatever will life be like afterwards?
