21st March, 2020.
I’m right, aren’t I … ?
When I say that the world’s having a crisis.
The Covid 19 corona virus is stalking the world, and the world … is panic buying toilet roll.
Near me … ?
We’re getting closures by the hour.
Frankly?
Pubs, bars and restaurants have been closed since last night.
Which means my old industry is rapidly being devastated.
As is the pub quiz scene.
In one sense? I love — and loved — being a quiz master.
I’m enough of an ageing ham to have enjoyed being a performer … and still do.
You’ve seen the Youtube channel, after all.
But I’m also aware there’s a lot of self employed entertainers — quiz masters, musicians, DJs — as the various government benefits being introduced?
Don’t cover the self employed.
Here’s hoping something crops up.

Remember me mentioning that I got a laptop for my birthday?
It’s a quite respectable, refurbished Lenovo Thinkpad.
I’d asked for it, as I’m jobhunting, at the mo.
And, in theory?
Could use it to job-hunt online, from Brentwood Library: and be able to get some exercise, at the same time.
Except … ?
Except that the entire Essex Library system is now shut down, due to the virus.
Granted, there’s an amnesty on late returns …
But … ?
It looks like I’m going to be stuck indoors …
