The French don't seem to care here. I was the ONLY ONE in a very busy supermarket ( LECLERC ) here today wearing gloves when handling the trolley.-------All shelves full.



PS. And for pushing the buttons on the check out.---

Good morning all from a hot and sunny Nairobi. How is everyone coping with the virus, is there a sense of panic?

It is certainly life changing with its implications. I feel for people who are struggling to take it on board, who are ill with it and at worst will lose their loved ones along the way. I feel for those of us who will have to cancel holidays into Europe this year. Wednesday we are supposed to fly to South Africa to start a new building project on the farm, but health comes before bricks, so if need be, we can delay.

We have until tomorrow to decide if we go or not. Fortunately the airline has given us the option to postpone or have a full refund.

Cool

Morning everyone.

The rain is horrendous coupled with gale force winds has put the block on me going to another breakfast meet.

Had a nice meet yesterday with one other V8 owner at the American Diner.

The decision to fly to South Africa or not this Wednesday has been taken out of my hands and postponed until the end of October. Today 2 more cases of Covid-19 confirmed. Because I arrived from London a few days ago, the UK is considered to be contaminated by the virus and I have to go into self isolation for 14 days. The President of Kenya made an announcement this evening outlining strict measures to be taken. More lock down.... Schools and colleges to be closed. People to avoid going into malls and not to spread false information on social media. He wants the nation to go cashless in all money transactions. People to keep at least one metre apart at all times. Traders and shop keepers will be severely dealt with if they hike the prices of sanitisers and toilet rolls etc,
