Sorry Seamus will you buy what he needs and send to him ?

We'll try our best but a lot of his medications are prescription only from his Doctor. In the meantime the company he flew out with will be contacting all those due to return to the UK and letting them know what their options are for getting back. Until then, he will have to cope with the situation as best he can.

May God help and sustain him 🧚‍♀️🧚‍♀️🧚‍♀️

Yes, thank you Grace. He does have enough medication with him to last at least until the end of March when he was due back, so with any luck he will get back before he runs out, if the company can send a flight to collect all those who are still stranded.

I was reading through the report cases of Covid 19 and obviously saw 539 cases in the country I intended to visit next month. I'm not traveling for now.

I know they must be real busy, that said they took my money in 10 seconds,I have waited 24 hours for a reply re wanting cash and not credit notes,
I have now contacted Amex to reverse the credit card transaction

Welcome Seamus hope all problems will be solved soon

Thank you Grace, I've passed all the information I have to him, now it's up to him. He has until Saturday to get a flight back to the UK or he'll be stranded until at least May.

I have blue water in both my toilets

Despite him saying that he was stranded, my eldest brother was actually listening and for out on one of the last flights and is back home again.

I'll do the same thing here if it gets really bad. I'd sail to Ad Dakhla's second Lagoon, Western Sahara most likely. Plenty of fish still, and lots of kelp. Plenty of food inland too. Water from osmosis, and De-Sal... It might tempt me to stay. I will retire there eventually.

For now though, this desert is just fine so far.

and by bus or train

That should be fun for blue water sailing; don't get splashed by the waves.

If you have enough bog rolls, and someone pushes food under the door, you're set to ride out the storm safely indefinitely.
No potty humour. (laughing)

There is talk of travel restrictions between states in the US or countries in the EU. It would seem reasonable that there should be restrictions and people should be forced to quarantine for 14 days after entry from a high incidence location. In some parts of the US there is a very low incidence of the virus while in others it is totally out of control. Those of us in areas with few cases would like to continue it that way and it is impossible with uncontrolled migration. We keep practicing good mitigation/prevention techniques and somebody with the virus comes in and restarts the virus spread. Either we have to control the migration or issue stay at home orders for the entire country with legal enforcement!!

I'm sorry to hear that Seamus. I hope all is well with your brother. I myself been stuck too in Manila since lockdown starrted here in the Philippines. Theres no possible way to go back home in my home province. So if this coronavirus over i'm gonna be take ferry back home and sailed 22 hours or more over the ocean to take away all the stress, the hard days during lockdown and home quarantine.Stay safe everyone !

He managed to get one of the last flights home, so he's as safe as anyone is. Take care of yourself and be well. I hope you get home as soon as possible.

Many people are not traveling and vacations are canceled til
Fall or later .
