Be seeing you!
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Youngest's favourite place, she often drives down there.
She's a big fan of The Prisoner. Something I have never seen.

Panic - The Smiths

"Panic on the streets of London
Panic on the streets of Birmingham
I wonder to myself
Could life ever be sane again?"

And a couple from Dire Straits. One for the social distancing:
"So Far Away"

And one for the more pragmatic:
"Why Worry ?"
