Reality check for two two letter acronyms with an ambition to describe our lives: EU and AI. Off self-isolating. They'll come back yapping about making the world a better place when the crisis subsides.

Is there food at the shops now?

There is a kind of neutral/equilibrium achieved when one can stand to lose a few pounds/kg and there isn't much food around.

But that doesn't last for long!

(BTW - this is not directed *at* Paul - it's just a general observation.)

Personally, I have not been to the grocery store for over two weeks and at the moment, I don't plan to go for at least 3 more weeks, maybe 4.

I will dine on rice and whole wheat pasta and sip Almond Milk from a crystal goblet. It will be fine.

And Neil Ferguson's forecast? It too will be forgotten.

As was his 2001 prediction.

The only man who will be remembered is Charlie Coburn

Was that his bird flu, swine flu or foot and mouth disease prediction?
