Covid-19 - 21 March

It is really strange. Winter seemed to be coming to an end, and spring was about to spring. Except: we seem to be falling back into winter again. Oh I know, the birds are getting excited, flowers are budding and the days are lengthening nicely. Normally, at this time of year, you'd see the first tourists out and about. I have seen one or two. But they appear to be hardly welcome anymore, as we hunker back down into this winter of Covid-19. I am hearing of campervans coming north to escape coronavirus in the Highlands, which has had only 8 cases to date. None in the Western Isles and none in Orkney. We'll want to keep it that way. When this is all over and done with, please come flocking back. Not now.
