    I might be wrong, I seem to remember Prince Charles was isolating in Balmoral, but is now back  at Clarence House??

    @josusa47 it's beyond belief. I can only hope they catch them but without decent CCTV it's a lost cause. They'd only get a smack on the wrist  even if they are caught. I wonder if there are any big, burly types not working just now, who could act as security guards  in some of these places.
    I know - horse and stable door, but if there are any other similar warehouses and buildings?
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    I had no idea you scrutinised the Court Circular so avidly I had no idea you scrutinised the Court Circular sO avidly @Hostafan1 😉

      ... having a quick peruse of the Royal Diary I think you’ll find he’s still at Birkhall, although by the wonders of modern science he is in communication with his office at Clarence House through which any statements are issued ... and of course it was the Duke of Rothesay not the PoW who opened the Nightingale hospital via Zoom on a Friday so he was obviously in Scotland then. 
    🧐 as @WonkyWomble will tell you, I am Miss Marple 😉

    Joan Hickson is to Marple as David Suchet is to Poirot.  There'll never be another as good.

    Ah Joan Hickson. You have been represented on screen @Dovefromabove by so many different people and with such different temperaments! Just checking.  :)  Forgive my discourteous presumption  :(

    I was wondering why a prisoner of war might  have opened a nightingale hospital.
    I suppose it makes sense, in a way😉

     the PoW who opened the Nightingale hospital 
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Regarding the attitude of footballers, and that prat Lineker, the clubs should furlogh the first team players so they can continue to pay the lesser mortals.  Then the overpaid, self obsessed morons could see how the other 99.99% of the population live.
