cant believe how much of a mess the world is currently!!
Over here there talking about this virus lockdown going on for months with a prediction that it will take 10 years for the economy to get back to the previous level we had.
The are / will be mass business closures with predictions of an unemployment level of around 10 percent.
Small businesses will be devastated.
At least the big food retailers are doing ok- for now, until peoples money runs out.
They have now implemented a 7-8 am time for the elderly only to be able to get some food supplies without having to navigate the hoards.
My 96 year old mother reckons she has not seen anything like this in her time, scary stuff.
