LOCKDOWN - 65 DAYS AND COUNTING.

Nearly 10 weeks of covid lockdown.

To be honest, to us, apart from not

going out for a beer or meals, not

much has really changed.

Sometimes during the week, we

only see the postman in normal times.

Not going to the shop every day is

also a bit of a bonus as we have saved

quite a few euros with sensible shopping.

Going to the supermarket just twice a week 

and doing it quick has proven to be easy.

Always have a good stock of beer and wine

is also essential.

Plus we have been making lots of stuff we

normally buy in.

Bread being the main thing.

Above, we made meatballs for the freezer,

so all in all, good times.

With less people around and cars on the road,

nature has got braver.

Seeing all sorts of birds in the garden, and

the bees have been churning out

great pollution free honey.

Not quite up to cornish standard but these are corned beef pasties to see us through a couple of days

KNEE TROUBLE AGAIN

Been a while since I posted.

Had 3 weeks of crap with the old knee problems.

Serious pain this time.

At last I have had blood tests and an X-Ray, and

the upshot is I will get a specialists appointment

very soon.

However, coronavirus will put that visit back, and rightly so.

RNA LUNCH

As usual, I organise the RNA January lunch

in the village.

33 turned up this year, which is about normal.

And a damn fine lunch it was too.

THAT WENT QUICK

A wet and mild January.

A month where we do very little, and that has

been the case.

Arthur continues to do well. 14 in April, but after

his treatment, he has been in fine form.
