RIP - Sir Stirling Moss and Tim Brooke-Taylor, sure makes you think about your own mortality
I'm feeling for my mum a bit on that score. Her brother (83, recovering from throat cancer and a diabetic) tested positive with COVID-19 and has been in hospital for a week. He lives down in Devon and mum is desperate to see him but understands why she can't. Still doesn't make it any easier.
Luckily, my uncle is making a good recovery and is now only showing mild symptoms, bit breathless and has a sore throat and the hospital are looking at discharging him tomorrow but mum is distraught.
He's a tough old bastard, ex Navy, ex Police and drunk like a fish and smoked most of his life. Every time he recovers from something I get the feeling he's going to live forever
