Moving

So you can move during lockdown but you can't take up any of the offers of help you were given so it was a two man, slightly small van job but we got it done with only my hugely heavy but keen to warp and twist wardrobes abandoned.  The tenant in the new house had left it absolutely immaculate and the weather was perfect, so I am now about 90% in.  Biggest excitement was a new mattress, I now sleep fabulously well with Emma.  The freestanding larder isn't quite what I was planning but it will do for the moment!

New House!

After viewing it for five minutes three months ago (you spend longer choosing jeans right?) it was good to see it again and still like it!

Spidey getting naked and partaking in all the spa treatments offered!  I've had him three years today.

Lockdown continues

We continue to live in very strange times, eighteen hundred Covid 19 deaths in the last two days alone and a Prime Minister who has only just got out of intensive care.  Every sporting and social event cancelled for months including the Edinburgh Festival.  Interestingly it has accelerated the rate at which we all adapt and learn, things are changing so quickly.  Hospitals are being built in weeks, gin distilleries are producing hand sanitiser and the Grand National was a virtual race in 2020.  I have settled in to working from home though I did have a day doing admin in the office on Monday, practically giddy from being out, the tiny touch of normality was a real boost.   Fuel prices are lower than they have been in years, no great benefit when you filled up weeks ago and still have two thirds of a tank!

I'm told balloon availability was very limited due to lockdown but a birthday celebration non the less!
