I'm not on Facebook either but really appreciated finding out how all in the USA are coping. Whatever happens, retain your sense of humour!

One thing I realised is our employees do not want cash - too many germs - lots of them want us to pay with card only. We also don't have guns - I'd probably shoot myself in the foot if I tried to shoot anyone or anything. I have no idea how toilet paper became so popular - maybe people were trying to cash in on our need for it. We don't physically have to stay home (yet) and the supermarkets are opening an hour earlier just for pensioners and disabled. Hasn't worked too well as the stores do not have adequate stocks for those standing in line (all close together).

Our restaurants are still open but that could change at any time. Take-aways (you call them something different) are doing a roaring trade but things change quickly.

Unfortunately our next cruise has 'bitten the dust' and I feel so sorry for Ngaire and her staff - what a 'bloomin' mess!

Marc - my younger sister had 'carpe diem' on her front door - but I don't know what the rest of the quote means? Thanks in advance.
