Thank You Boris Johnson: No Better Man

 We’re very happy in Ireland that Boris Johnson declared an end to Covidology.  How do I know that?  Because we are not talking about it.  In our own quiet humble way we have been waiting for direction from a higher power to whom we give the name of England.   The man has spoken and we are released from the magic chalk circle which trapped us.  Here I think the words of Hilaire Belloc are a comfort and a counsel:

His Father, who was self-controlled,
Bade all the children round attend
To James’ miserable end,
And always keep a-hold of Nurse
For fear of finding something worse.

 

 (Cautionary tale about Jim, the boy who slipped his nurse, and was eaten by a lion)
