One thing about the Brits I hugely admire is their ability to laugh in times of crisis.
A recent Daily Telegraph cartoon epitomised this. It showed a chap leaving his home for work and saying to his wife, “I’m off to do my self-isolation. I’m opening the shop”.
Less than a year ago We Work was claiming a value of US$47 billion.
Very soon it should go belly-up.
History repeats itself, as we’re often told.
So it would seem with the current utterly irrational lockdown which brings to mind the most famous quote from the Vietnamese War.
A breathless lengthy lead Herald item told us that Millie Elder-Holmes has bought a house in Christchurch.
Presumably many people have done the same in recent times. Why doesn’t the Herald tell us about them?
