A World Elsewhere

Saw something this morning on Sky News about floods in the north of England, specifically relating to York and Manchester. In addition to waters rapidly rising, the snow was falling in one of the areas being reported on, and all this against the backdrop of the lockdown and the spread of the coronavirus.

When I was a little lad floods & the like happened in other places to other people. We lived shielded from disasters. Now I look across the world to the land of my birth from a place that feels safe and secure and worry for those I left behind.
