Dusbin men emptied bottles this morning, I heard a voice saying it's too damned early for this !@#$@, your damned right it is!

It's been glorious weather, althrough a bit blowy today  Apparently Bournemouth beach was packed Wedneday, I would have loved to gone down but it would have been impossible to socially distance. I recon we'll get another spike, China are already reporting fresh infections, so I hope they will contain it.  I posted another DVD at waitrose, the queau was horresndouse, I walked along Ashley Road photographing Rainbows which people have put in their windows.  

I met catherine Dipple (friend from Steamhenge) at the Turkish cafe in the maltings, it's quite popular.  we are both members of a group called Steam punks (google them), my hat almost blew off in the draft.  Had ice cream (vanilla & chocolate) which I haven't seen for ages, Catherine is such a good friend.  Apparently Nikky (another friend in Steam Henge) lost her mum in a care home to Covid-19, and could only say goodbye through the window.  How heartbreaking is that?  They have such a back log of bodies to do that the funeral won't be held until June.  Also saw someone from the friendship group, I asked her where she got her mask from, apparently from Well pharmacy; I might ned to wear one when visiting Bournemouth.  You only wear the masks once, I wonder if I could spray them with stuff.  Catherine has cleverly made her mask out of a jay cloth, only thing is these masks steam glasses up. 

Been a horrible fire at Wareham started by those awful portable barbeque things, I hope the wildlife were ok.  Some people are just irrisponable. Corienne my friend said they could see and smell the moke from Fordingbridge.  


I have antibiotics for my arm but I'm worried about them in case they make me feel sick, I will ring up Tuesday if I start feeling really unwell.   Some more news displayed below.


About time but too late.

Been so busy over Christmas which just shot by. Went up aunt Joan's, Karl rang Alan while we were at Dunchurch to ask where we were.  We went the London road route, I was relieved when Alan turned up. We went to Elliott's field a shipping complex near Brownsover estate,  most of the shops are closing in the town and may be turned into flats.  I don't even know how long shops will last, because everyone seems to shop online.  I'd rather feel the product, then have to return the stupid thing because it didn't look like what was in the photo. When my parents came to Rugby in 1967 Rugby was a different world.  It has changed a lot, we used to park at Rugby precinct now renamed Clock Towers.  Someone got killed while under the ift fixing it, how horrible in that?  Alan knew one of his friends, what a way to die. Sometimes when I'm in the bathroom, I can hear speeding trains going through the station on the way to Manchester from London. We get this in Devon...

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.

Last night at 8pm when I was watching The Time Tunnle  The Time tunnle  ( a 1960's drama I take the mickey out of, because the actings so appallling ) I heard a tapping sound.  I thought 'who's hammering at this time of night?' then Lisa my neighbour texed and said they were clapping in apprecation for the NHS hero's.  This is being done all over the UK and is brillient!  Other people are lighting candles in their windows, or putting up sparkly lights.  I have to get the shopping up to my parents, trying to convince them how bad this virus is is very hard and they simply will not take it seriously. More updates to come soon. I delivered shopping to parents and phoned dad to to let him know it was there, waved at him from steps. went to Tesco along Wilton Road, there was s queue of people waiting outside. They were only letting one customer in at a time,t one man was getting irate. didn't have what I wanted anyway. Went to Tesco's and Iceland, Tesco...
