Over on my personal Facebook page I’ve been running some jokes every evening and my followers are growing exponentially. I’ve laughingly declared myself the Humorist Laureate of the Coronavirus Pandemic – frivolous, I know, but it’s one of the few things I can do to help and something quite a few of us need – to laugh. It relieves the stress.
In this episode of Lockdowners’ Laughs … a festival of puns!

And a moment of gratitude…Recently I got a comment on one of my Facebook JOKE TIME posts from someone I don’t know (my page is Public) thanking me for trying to keep folks laughing a bit to contrast with the hideous nature of what we’re all dealing with right now. I so appreciated that because it recognised me for doing my tiny little bit in this crazy, hideous pandemic.
Update April 8th: here’s another comment that made me cry: at least I feel I am contributing something to the “war effort” against COVID19 which, as a writer, can be hard to do. It’s below in the comments section… “I love reading your daily puns Suzan St Maur. You are doing a brilliant job keeping us amused. And this is coming from a fellow humourist. Julie.”
Stay home, wash your hands and try to laugh a little each day.
