The idea was to take the rest of 2020 off and maybe do a bit of travelling then decide from there whether or not I want to work again. This virus seems to have put the mockers on that so I might need to re-evaluate. Not just the travel, I mean it's fu*ked up the economy in a big way as well.
Cant see you doing much travelling this year M with the way things are going (unless you had planned a visit to the Arctic lol), I was on the blower to my old boss in Spain last night who was telling me in his opinion things are much worse (in Spain anyway) than what has been reported thus far, he is a pretty switched on guy with a lot of contacts in various governments, he has 9 team members currently in isolation all testing positive in the eastern Spain division where I previously worked....thats 20% of his workforce in that area alone, he also said the Italian, French & American depts have all been stood down as have some of the middle east guys due to positive testing.

I had a few cancellations this week so have been tinkering with a van I bought (replacement for my old Vivaro which finally bit the dust) on the quiet days and even managed to give the garage a spring clean. Boxsets & red wine in the evenings
