Friday April 17th

Weathers a bit gray today, but it was lovely yesterday.  I went to Tesco extra on Southampton road and the waiting time was horrendous, so I'll doubt if I will wait there again if that's bad.  I had heartburn last night, and its back again today, It comes in waves so I hope it's not a sign of Corona.  Even B and M have a waiting time to get in, althrough their so called glass protective panels are not good.

I clapped for the NHS last night and took a video with my phone.  Going to stop now as chest is really hurting.

I looked at my dad's journal today. He started it in 1968 when he married mum, he describes a lost world of places that no longer exists. In it he's written an inventory of things he bought from Teignmouth and Rugby. I will make a separate blog of it so it's not lost, I will describe what each item is and what it did. I was sad when he described the loss of Jinky our dog, I know Jinky meant a lot to him; they are both together in Heaven now.  I noticed  how excited dad got when he and mum got their first colour tv. You have to remember that a lot of homes in those days had black and white tv's, colour only existed in hotels and guest houses. I know dad got upset when his bike was stolen, mine was pinched too from the shed at Sanctuary. Have a solar motion light over the door now. I got my work cut out now trying to save all this, and I will.

On Bemerton Heath on Gainsborough Close, we have the most amazing community garden. Robin who began Rise 61 started it, I got into gardening during lockdown. I'm planning to do Lavandar bags to sell at the bash in September for 50p. I have been waiting for them to dry out, I just need to add drops. We went to Bowood today, what an amazing place. It's where oxygen was first discovered by Joseph Priestley in 1774.  The room (once a laboratory) is still there, now looks a bit different. The grounds and lake are lovely,  but the rain spoilt it a bit. Been lovely weather until today, hope it's better tomorrow. Dad's anniversary of his death is on Thursday, it will be hard for me and mum ; I miss him so much.

Boiling hot again today, I've got a usb fan from Amazon. Haven't told mum as she'd complain about it. Im really missing Teignmouth at the mo, it's dreary in Salisbury. I went to Weymouth yesterday,  it was buzzing better then Bournemouth. Wish I could of stayed longer but I had to get back. There was an Indian event going on today in the market square. Loved to stay longer as the music was really good, but mum said it was hurting her ears so I got rushed off to the bus. People think I'm going to live in Salisbury forever. I don't think so! I know where I want to live out my twilight years, it's not Salisbury or Wiltshire. I've always liked the Devon coast,  and the way things are between me and AnnMaria I'm tempted to go now if it weren't for mum. I miss the sound of the gulls, the smell of wet sand and seaweed.
