Smashing news.

Now, we must train meandering grown-ups to maintain their distances & wear protective masks.

We all know about dogs that can sniff out drugs etc. and also those that can tell if you are about to have an epilectic fit.

Now they are training dogs to tell if we have coronavirus and the first ones are nearly ready to start duty. They will probably be at airports and test centres to start with.

A brilliant idea!! :-)
