I agree with everything you say and my previous post was a tongue-in-cheek attempt at lightening the mood. Fortunately I have no underlying health issues (that I know of!) and feel in generally good health and am not going to hide away until a vaccine is here, hopefully not too long now. I am taking the normal precautions and not going out unless necessary. But having said that I have just been out for a much needed haircut and tomorrow my wife and I are going for lunch at our local Wetherspoons!

Could we stop the litany of 'and now xxx is cancelled, it's my favourite show and I'm heartbroken...'
It's not adding anything positive to the forum and for those of us who either have serious health conditions or are looking after those who do it is merely pouring salt on the wounds. As has been said several times, presume THEY ARE ALL CANCELLED. Have a quiet winge to your self. Then get on with life and let us know what you have been up to, what you can do and what positives you hope the future holds.

Seeing the comment from 'Simplex' made me think back to the 'good old days' when I was part of the Tuesday Night gang at Knowl Hill (Berks) and we would be in the shed discussing the merits of one make of engine against another. John Keeley would come in the shed and bark in that delightful gruff way of his, "you're all taking sh** ...... all engines are bloomin' luvly".
Similarly, when it was chucking it down with rain and properly miserable and we were all moaning our heads off about the weather, John would sharply tell us it was a lovely day and inform us, "any day you are still here is a lovely day". John Keeley ..... we miss him so much !

It’s astonishing that the Communist Party of China has done more damage to the British way of life in a manner that Al Qaeda could ever have dreamed of. Which is a bit odd given what they’re doing to their own citizens close to the Kazakh/ Mongolian border.

Don’t know if anyone ever reads my sign off signature at bottom of each post “ Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday “ It was some advice given to me at a time in my life when I was facing a very uncertain future with my health ,indeed no one was sure if I would pull through ,but I did and I’m still here Don’t worry about tomorrow because it’s yet to come and yesterday has gone ,just get on with living the day you have been given Yes I am missing my rallies and good times with the steam fraternity ,however I’m fit healthy and tinkering with stuff in the workshop ,if it takes a couple of years to get back to “ normal” so be it our engines have been about a long time ,over 100 years in many cases and will still be there when all this is over . Take care and stay well Cheers Martin
