What a sad state of affairs - a pandemic is terrorising the world and all the sad little trolls have taken to Twitter, stating their hope that the 'Boomer' generation will be wiped out.
Clearly we have raised many sociopaths alongside our otherwise well-adjusted population. Protected by the anonymity that social media offers, they try to prey on our social weaknesses but in truth it only serves to highlight their own miserable existences. So for that reason, I'll have done with discussing them here - they're not worth a nano-second of our time.
I think we are all shocked to be in this position... there cannot be one person who doesn't have family and freinds who are very vulnerable to this virus.
And even if we self-isolate, I genuinelly can't see how we can do that for more than a month at a time. And what happens during that month? It's too scary to contemplate.
Meanwhile the heros amongst us - the doctors, nurses, police and army, as well as the supermarket workers, the hospital cleaners, the fire and ambulance services, the lorry drivers who transport our foods, the electricity engineers, the sewage plant workers - they will continue to work, keeping the rest of us going.
And I'm a little embarassed to be just a writer - a woman whose work is of no real value, serving only to entertain. But that's who I am.
The world will keep turning whether I write another film or not. But if these heroes above stop doing what they do, the world will indeed grint to a halt.
So from the bottom of my heart I want to say thank you to all of them!
Stay safe and well. xx
