Retiredyorkie's bio
I have been retired for quite a number of years but enjoy travelling in the UK and Europe. Enjoy sitting in the sun and reading a good book together with visiting places of interest in the Country I am visiting.
When I was widowed I sat thinking for three months and then came to the conclusion that life was still going on and I could not put the clock back, and I am sure my late spouse would have had said "go for it" so I started to be solo traveller which was difficult at first but then started to meet people in the same situation and now enjoy the company of others whilst holidaying in hotels and the odd cruise.
I also socialise at home with friends going for the odd lunch. enjoy going to garden centres (I may add not a brilliant gardener ) but get by.. Reading a good book on rainy day.

Does the thought of families being allowed to mix over Christmas make you feel anxious or relieved?We can live in hope - these vaccines seem to have been rushed through lets hope they work as they are supposed too Usually it takes longer to develop new vaccines so how many corners have been cut one wonders. May be I am being a bit pessimistic.ViewDate:

Does the thought of families being allowed to mix over Christmas make you feel anxious or relieved?So far we have had lock downs, followed by rising numbers of Covid and deaths. 3rd December will be for some all out shopping followed by depending on which tier they are in close up socialising, December 24th to 27th December family and friend socialising and then come January another lock down to rising numbers of Covid . The choice is yours -ViewDate:

Is foreign aid better spent at home?YES !!!!! Too much of our money that is given in foreign aid is not spent where it should be, If a country needs the monetary aid they should have to apply for it and specify exactly what it is for - not for some rich ruler or to fund a space programme - Our country at this moment in times needs the money to help in this pandemicViewDate:

Would you vote to legalise euthanasia?At this moment in time you can decided to put an animal out of pain but you have to watch a loved one go through losing their dignity and in total pain. I think a person should have the right to decide when they wish to die.ViewDate:

Should people be incentivised to get the Covid-19 vaccine?Why an earth should people be offered an incentive to have the vaccine - just the thought of getting back to some sort of normality should be enough to encourage people to have the jab.ViewDate:
