The Covid Years : Third Anniversary.
A bonus Timewatch photo this week as it was three years ago this week that Britain officially went into "Stay at Home" lockdown. The regulars will already know our story of Trump closing the US borders to all durn foreigners; ordering all American citizens abroad to return home immediately etc etc. Fortunately Kim took no notice and our excellent specialist immigration lawyer kept her legal in the UK for 15 months. At that point she voluntarily returned to Texas from where she could file a new and different visa application which then led six months later to another new and different visa application that finally gave her a British Residency Permit lasting 2 1/2 years.
I'm interested in what has become the classic Covid memory, classic Covid image that stands out in your mind? For us, it is the totally unexpected sight of empty cruise ships anchored in Weymouth Bay. During our government permitted walks (remember those?) it was almost a daily routine to see how many "Ghost Ships" there were. The first was a real shock to see. Then there were two, three, five, eight and eventually peaking at 10 all anchored offshore!=
This photo has not been posted previously. It features 7 such ghost ships on May 24th 2020, almost exactly two months after the UK lockdown began.
With hindsight, what is your stand-out image / memory of the three Covid years so far?
