It is a strange spring. I will call it the Pandemic Corona Spring of 2020. A virus that kills between 1 and 2 percent of all the people it infects has been surging throughout the whole world and is killing many people. For some reason all the people were inspired to buy large amounts of toilet rolls. I'm not even sure that runny nose is one of the symptoms but I would say, if it floats your boat buy the coat. If it makes people feel in control to buy 150 toilet rolls then let them be. I don't even feel a need to argue really. High Street retail needs a boost these days anyway.
I am Alan Booth, an ordinary British Man . I'm not one of the famous people that have the same name as me, just an ordinary guy. Welcome to my main blog, a true reliable record of history from the perspective of an ordinary man, a place filled with my thoughts; perhaps my thoughts will persist longer on here than in my brain itself. My twitter I.D. is @alspresso.

Spring rolls
It's spring now, at least to me it is. Officially it is spring on the 20th but I called it spring last week when I saw Dandelions, Buttercups, Daffodils and Daisys sprouting out of the grass. If I see spring flowers, it is spring. I like to keep things simple. I would even call the whole of march spring if a saw a Daisy in the grass.
