travel insurance cover it?
yep. in blighty. wise move as it turned out. i know a few people in vitenam and thailand. westerners. they're doing okay. i know thailand have waived visa extensions for the time being. makes sense! my friends are on a [very] small island. the boats still come in with supplies, etc., but no more people are allowed. so far, so good.
for me, this lockdown isn't much different from when i was travelling. routine is much the same except for a bar or whatever in the evening. plus i'm used to living on a budget. but, being mortgage free, i'm personally okay for funds. got the van off the road - so no tax or insurance or fuel costs.
still ticking over with royalties and the occasional script. but shooting scenes in the US is suspended, obviously!
concerned for janey, but she's a big girl (ooh yeah, baby!) and will keep herself safe.
so, there you go. that's the GA. hopefully, you'll gets to Scotland later this year?
It wasn’t booked yet so no loss of money. We always only book a few weeks out from the travel date, were just about to do it when things started looking bleak. We’ll definitely head over when we can.
I am glad you’re home, as it were, I imagine it would be extra unsettling to be elsewhere during this. I’m glad to hear that your friends out there are alright.
Shooting scenes in the US? And you never offered me a role..?!
I worry about Janey too. She must be crazy stressed these days but I know she manages to find time and stamina for occasional bike rides. She is simply amazing.
Sounds ok, I hope the health care systems out there are able to cope, my organisation is still trying to repatriate workers in some African countries, a worry over the quality and quantity of hospitals is one of the main issues it seems.
Blighty will be fine am sure, but the challenge is the exit plan from lockdown, they don't seem to know what they will do - no country does - and returning to travel as normal seems a long way away
Janey and all her colleagues are amazing, the bike rides am sure will help de-stress, they do for me as I didn't duck low enough at work and got the role of coordinating our approach to this thing... it's all I have done since end of Feb, we just furloughed 25% and another 20% next week, sadly not including me!
awww...you guys...

I'm good, it's stressful but I'm being well taken care of both at home and at work so we are managing so far. I think we've got our preparations made as far as possible and just have to see if we ride out the storm when it hits...had a few discussions with now former friends on FB about PPE , suddenly they're all experts...
Hope you're all well and staying safe...I try and pop in to say hello when I can but haven't got much time
And the cycling and online PT sessions from my gym in the garage are doing wonders for my mindfulness and my thighs!!
keep well my lovelies...love you all
