The Streets Are Empty

There are no cars on the road. There's no one walking on the pavements. The shops are closed.

The streets are empty.

There are now no more words for how serious this is. The coronavirus has spread across the world, causing thousands upon thousands of deaths and an unprecedented amount of illness, causing the world to grind to a halt.

Economies are tanking, people are losing their jobs, (the USA now has 3 million unemployed people, an American record), and any semblance of normal life has gone.

For me, the weekdays are fairly normal. I am classed as a "key worker" in the NHS, so at least I still get a regular income and get to keep a routine but for millions of others, their world has been turned upside down. It's really rather horrible.

And because of the situation, there's nothing else to talk about. Nothing else to do. If you're caught outside and either not going to or from work (if it's essential) and not gaining supplies that are food and medicine, you can be fined by Police.

Therefore, nothing is happening.

And to make matters even worse, I've just this second found out that my number one crush in the whole world, AJ Pritchard, has quit Strictly Come Dancing.

When will the bad news end?!
