Social media? People complaining? Shorely not.
In Portugal SWMBO just found a FB group of English people (seems a mix of "ex-pat"s and tourists) specifically talking about the virus.
Speculation is rife about impending lock-down here, troops have already been spotted at the local Aldi.
Someone has just asked if anyone knows whether they'll be able to take their UK holiday in May.
Our current thinking is that we will keep calm and carry on while we can. Lockdown would be no fun if we can't go out during the day, even though we are in a comfortable and spacious town centre flat with it's own roof terrace and we came equipped with plenty of TV and other entertainment.
If we can't get flights easily friends in a villa up the road have offered us a room, also another mate has an empty villa (with pool!) not far away, and a flat on the sea front, and we met some of their relatives lats week who were going back home but offered us their flat if we need it. That's assuming we can't just stay on here...
