God. Sorry about that! I don’t know why but these are the things I find most upsetting about all this. Someone’s been on the planet for years, leaving their history, affecting people’s lives and a funeral is such a basic and important moment in terms of acknowledging that. There’s something about not being physically able to make that pilgrimage I find really sad. I hope you can find the capacity to connect in the way you need to to it.

Thanks. I know what you mean but I am actually really relieved. It is an auntie who was in her 80s and the funeral would have been full of her friends of a similar age. And I have another auntie in her 80s who was making her way down from the hebrides for it. I would have hated to have gone along and made someone ill. Strange and sad new priorities that seep into everything now...
I was supposed to be going to a funeral on Thursday but it is now being live streamed instead.
