Genuinely, thank you for sharing this. Your missives, even when describing awful events are a delight to read.

I hope your cellular rebellion is localized and overcome.

So did knowing all this put me in a good, Guardianista frame of mind, showing my fellow passengers sympathy, understanding and tolerance despite doing the sums and assessing my rapidly growing chances of infection and rapidly diminishing chances of survival?

Did it buggery.

I sat there, seething with fear and hostility, subconsciously willing them all to just get off the bloody train and die. Sod everyone else, what about me? When push comes to shove, then to Hell with your poor huddled masses, it's all down to Me, Me, Me.

I share your misanthropy, though I still think Sartre got slightly wrong. Other People may feel like hell, but the true unexpurgated next layer of hell, below anything Dante could imagine is Other Peoples' Children

… but the true unexpurgated next layer of hell, below anything Dante could imagine is Other Peoples' Children

My take was more that it was Roma children who took that prize.

Excellent treatment at that hospital, friend had a lobe removed from his right lung within a week or so of being diagnosed at Faro. Still having normal life about seven years later and surprisingly even survived dose of Covid

Let's hope your treatment does the job and you join the thousands of survivors out there we don't see.

I couldn't possibly comment ?

I was actually thinking about those kids in the pub or restaurant, but...

Thankyou for your compliments and for your concern and expressions of sympathy, Gentlemen. I will keep you posted.

After all, in these days of covid I have little else to do but sit behind a keyboard, pontificating.

I really must put leather patches on my jacket elbows and start smoking a pipe.
