A lot has been happening over the past few days, just haven't had time to record it so I'll begin.

Had the hottest day of the year on Thursday (29-30d) it was lovely but I was roasting!  The sky was noisy again with planes, because Spain is allowing holiday makers again.  

The day before I seriously thought about visitng Bournemouth, I asked the driver in Blue Boar Row and he said that they are only allowed 29 people on the bus.  To get back would be risky because a lot of the students won't wait and often rush the bus, one girl said the people who go down there don't care at all about social distencing; in the end I'm glad I didn't go.  The A30 was grid locked with Brummies taking six hours to get to Bournemouth!

Bournemouth declared a nation emergency, the beaches were heaving with over 7,000 or more people.  Half of them were from Birmingham and London; why didn't the Londoners bugger off to southend and the Brummies up to Blackpool?  Instead they flocked down to dorset parking illegally, abusing the local's and most likely bringing the virus with them; it was so bad we even made news in Australia!  There was a stabbing in Bournemoth by the pier between two men from (guess where) london, so their also bringing their violence with them. There was also a lot of brawling on the beach which brough the police in.  also yobs keep jumping off the pier causing more havok.

I was sitting in the living room yesterday when a helicopter flew twice over the flat in the direction of cathedral gardens, turns out two men had been hurt in a fight, what is wrong with these people! I sat round Elizabeth gardens on my camp chair (heavy thing) and read my Kindle.  The Portaguese pest wasn't there, apparently he's bothered two other women.  Lots of children in the river (one's that couldn't and sensibly stayed away from Bournemouth).

One little girl was washing her doll's hair upside down in the river, the way hairdressers are going we'll probably all have to stand upside down with out hair in the water!  One child had a dingy, 'what's that, the Titanic' I thought.  Boys had water pistol's, I like Lizzy gardens as I can people watch.  The Bob's ice's was doing a terrific trade, the toilets are being refusrbished again must be a flushing job.  

The crap that was left behind after all thse un-locals went home from Bournemouth was horrible.  Used nappies, disposable barbeques and things I'd rather not mention.  Also people camped overnight which is not allowed.  The government are now making noises about closing the beaches, I fear the damage may have already been done and we'll get a second wave.  Horrifyingly Lots of nitrous oxide bottles, or laughing gas, were found on Bournemouth beach!

Some people have no sense if they bring THAT in! No laughing matter, what the hell do they want with that?   

I met some members of the WI yesterday on Harnham cricket field, I thought their were only going to be three of us, but some others turned up.Brought my stool which made bum go numb after a while.  The breeze was a bit parky, lots of noise from people jumping into the river and playing footy.  I haven't missed footy on the TV to be honest, teams play now with no ausiences watching. 

I get a bit anxiouse at night because the MET office bangs on about thunderstorms and I hate lightening.  The first warning is when my window lights up or flashes then I grab the duvet and fling it over my head, I HATE bangs.
