"H5N1 Killed a wild swan,
It was a kind of omen
Of everything to come.
I can't believe it's happening
And that it's happening now.
I can't believe it's happening,
It's coming true somehow."
The first verse from "Canvey Island", a song that if I'm honest is probably my all time favourite song of theirs, from album #3, the Mercury Prize nominated Do You Like Rock Music. Substitute COVID19 for H5N1 and that's the situation we are all in at the moment. The idea of setting off on the 1st of June looks like it might not happen, and trying not to think about it is absolutely impossible what with the intense media coverage and the governments somewhat inadequate response and constant fibbing.
I guess we will all have to wait and see how this all pans out.
