A tale of two leaders

Yesterday there was two very different pieces of news about the leaders of two neighbouring islands.

In Ireland, it was announced our Taoiseach (Prime Minister) has rejoined the Medical Register. Dr Leo Varadkar will join the frontline and work one day a week for the Health Services Executive.  Good man Leo!!

While on the nearby island of Great Britain, a different news story emerged. Their Prime Minister Boris Johnson was sadly taken to hospital with a high temperature after testing Covid19 positive about 10 days ago and still suffering from symptoms. As of today he is still in hospital and may be kept in for another night, although it is reported that he is working away from his bed.

The above indicates that the Corona Virus does not discriminate against anyone and why we need to STAY INSIDE and flatten the curve!



It's a lovely bright day here in Ireland. I got out for a walk with the dog this morning before working from home and will now get out for an evening walk with him.

Edit>>  
At about 8.30pm here in Ireland, news came through that Boris Johnson was moved to Intensive Care due to a worsening of his condition. I hope he recovers. He is in the best place and will get the best of care from the NHS. Get well soon Boris.
