Corona Cavern

Apparently most RTAs happen within 10 minutes of your home, and we are trying to reduce the load on NHS, hence no non essential driving hth x

Yes it does help, thanks. I did not know this. This may have been obvious to many but after having talked to other people it would seem I was not the only one who wasn't fully understanding so I do wonder whether the message should be a little more explanatory. (I seem to be becoming a tad 'thicker' with age. )

There is growing concern about how youngsters in particular are not taking this seriously and I personally feel it's because the messages of stay home, protect the NHS etc are just not applicable to their mindsets.

I saw what I thought was a good ad on the internet where 3 lads were in a park together. The captions above their heads were ' feels great but is carrying Corona', 'has asthma', lives with his Gran'. I thought this is the kind of basic message kids might respond more to as it talks about how it might affect them and many kids only become less self centred with age and growing maturity.

I've just been told the High Street in the next town to us is very busy, with people out in the sun. Maybe Darwin's Theory will apply.

No , I know .
Do you have a butcher or farm shop ?.. I mean that could deliver. Alot have gone down the delivery route for vulnerable.

Still no chicken in our local supermarkets!

[Containergardener]

Biscuits mmm yes please.
Just having a cuppa watching the water feature we were going to remove. OH saw a great tit go in the top hole, so possibly has a nest already.

[Snoop Puss]

Time for a cup of tea and pax vobiscuits.

Anyway

Morning all
Baldy how are you and your sunburn today? Hope its calmed down a bit.
Weathers a bit misty but I havnt looked at the forecast yet. Plan was to tackle the weed bed again with OH removing the water feature that's been in 15yrs and its drum it sits in has corroded. Could be fun.
Hope you all have a lovely day

I managed to order a couple of bags from Redbournbury Mill unbleached white and one of their malted wholegrain (via Bakerybits) - that should see me through the next few months

Nice weather morning, having had a week off dog walks as was overdoing the knee a bit . I went today , all fine .
Unfortunately..unspoken rule here is if someones car is jn walk entrance to forest go to another. Today someone came in while we were in with about 9 collies . Why couldnt they go in another. Wernt even friendly , looked at us like we were the problem . Never seen them before . Have a feeling they may be here isolating from elsewhere .
Moan over .

Walk where the supermarket 30miles away ?

Shipton Mills are still taking and sending orders out. They release a delivery slots when they catch up with the orders.

Something is bugging me about the lockdown and the thought just wont go away. .

How come we are allowed to walk from A - B but we are not allowed to drive there?
.....

What am I missing???

There are no pavements here and tractors use the road but people still manage to walk and not use their cars.

[Containergardener]

Can't ignore it any longer.

Ignore what ?

[veggiechicken]

Evening

We have to drive as in the back of nowhere and would get run over back a tractor or milk tanker as no pavements otherwise.

Can't ignore it any longer.
