Last man standing

According to the British press there is a 100% anti-body test available now.  The plan, apparently, is to let all  those people with anti-bodies back into work and society.  Now the way I see it is all the old people, who let's face it are far more obedient than young people (most of them anyway), stayed at home and therefore had zero chance of catching the virus.  Ergo none of us have anti-bodies and therefore we are doomed to stay indoors for ever.  Fat chance.,

Yesterday I had a call from someone asking me in French whether I was depressed because of the coronavirus.  At first I thought it was the Mairie finally getting round to ask if the residents are ok but no that would be too much to ask.  After a while I twigged that it was the Jehovah's Witnesses, especially when she asked if I was getting comfort from the bible.   I assured her that I had never been so happy, that life was great and I was busy, busy, busy. 

Today, after I had done my exercises, been for a bike ride and was trying to work up the enthusiasm for ironing,  I turned the television on.  BBC Parliament was showing the entire 1964 election, which was a close run thing.  I was a teenager at the time and I don't particularly remember it but it was interesting to see old names and faces.  I was drawn into it and it was only when my son rang that I realised I had been watching for over an hour.  Well I didn't lie to the Jehovah's Witnesses,  I am busy, busy, busy.

French railway workers are striking 2 days in 5 for the next few months in protest against Macron's reforms.  To launch these strikes huge protests were organised in Paris but oh dear the strikers couldn't get there because the trains weren't running due to strike action.

stormy weather

Last evening there was a huge storm, lightning,  wind and torrential rain in Agra. This morning the devastation was clear. No power, 50 dead and hundreds of trees down. On the way to the taj mahal  I could see crushed cars, flooded streets  and so many trees.   Then out of all this destruction I arrived at the taj mahal. It doesn't matter how many pictures you see  they cannot compare to seeing this exquisite building rising up above you.  I have waited so long to see it and  it  is far better than I could have imagined.
