My birthday was yesterday. We were able to send our son a gift by mail so the ban isn't worldwide. Thanks for the good wishes.

@JudyEv , Well, Happy Birthday to you from Canada. It is understandable that the airline companies have less and less scheduled with all that is going on,

@judyev He should have travelled north of the border and posted it here. The south still hasn’t opened up even to the UK so the demand for flights is very small. Anyone arriving from England is expected to quarantine so no-one is coming. However this border business of ours is now quite useful for circumventing things!!

He has no gigs at the moment so isn't travelling much at all. His wife is paranoid about the virus so they are pretty much keeping to themselves. But that would have been a good solution.

I think the Temporary thing could be quite longer- may be a few months. That is a lovely photo indeed!!

@JudyEv Yes, and I feel that the lockdowns and restrictions all over the world could stay for another Year and a Half- sounding a bit pessimistic, but looks quit possible as of now.

I suppose I don't want to sound too optimistic but I agree. It could still be a very long time.

Thanks for the good wishes. It's a shame but in the big picture, it isn't a big deal. He tried to send it and I've seen it so all is well.

@JudyEv You said it. The most important thing was the fact that you were able to keep in touch with each other.

It's odd that there is a ban of mail between Ireland and Australia. Hopefully the ban doesn't last long.

@JudyEv Fewer planes would make sense. I don't think it'll last long either.

I guess there are too few planes going back and forth and there is no room for mail. It won't last forever I'm sure.

Despite the delayed mail, it's still a beautiful story of a son recognizing his dear mother's birthday. These are the simple things that have a huge positive effect.
