RE: What we should know "Virus" and be doing.
Just prior to lock down I had some 18mm ply ,screws, nails, and various timber delivered to get on with several jobs most of which are done, I rang the building depot yesterday to see if I could order materials to make a start on converting the lower garage into a bedsit ....only to be told how limited stock was , you can not get plaster Anywhere mate ! I was told ...and we do not know when we will get it in .....insulation sheet ....in your dreams mate ! I could get timber studs but ...you have to collect ! .........I rang around some mates .....we are rammed out with work ....people screaming at us ....but we can not get the gear ! ......with everyone talking about lockdown and Covid 19 .....people are not thinking about the implications of it all , but they will very shortly when their jobs are lost ....never to return . Family’s will lose their homes ....yet people can not see this coming or just ignore it all together , people hanging on to their job and working less hours in the hope they keep the job.
Deeper and deeper they slide helplessly into more debt , food banks are now a way of life for a lot of households, without it they would starve , stripping mams n dads of a means of supporting their kids ...soul destroying ! But they have no choice .
I could rant on but what good would come of it ! . It’s not so much this virus .....it’s about everything else that it has caused ...things we thought unrelated when in fact everything is related and all around the world.
we have seen Nothing yet ! The real bad stuff is yet to come ( forget the virus )
