Barryd I agree and like you I don't think this will happen in the near future.

I know that lots of events have had to be cancelled but last night it was announced that the Edinburgh New Year Celebrations will not now take place and those who have already booked a ticket will get a refund.

No we will not be back to anything like the old normal that we remember by Christmas. We will just have to get on with life as it now is and will be for a very long time to come.

I did wonder if we continue to wear face masks and wash our hands, whether our incidence of ordinary colds will go down this coming year? If it does,that will be a good thing from the ' new normal' .

I can't see us getting back to normal for a long time, we just have to get on with it and obey the rules and keep safe

It was announced on the local radio yesterday that several Pantomimes won't go ahead this year.

There will be no return to the old normal for those of a certain age or medical conditions.

For us a the new Normal that has emerged is very different from what it was, with being housebound more, avoiding contacts with crowds, no shopping in person on a High Street, Supermarket or out of town centres.  No visits to Art Galleries/Museums/Theatre/National Trust properties etc.  The list goes on and on and it will remain our Normal for the for see able future.

Latest research indicates that those who have had Covid only have effective antibodies for three months against a re-infection.  That is not going to make producing a vaccine an even more difficult a task.  Thus the future does not look to good for many of us oldies.

Until a vaccine that works is produced, I can’t see things returning to ‘normal’.
