Sunday 9th August 2020

 What a gloriouse weekend it's been, only sad thing is I can't go to the seasdide as all the beaches are rammed.  One lady said she had to abandon her day out as it became too busy and she felt people were on top of her.  Now it's been on the news that new cases are rising!  I don't want to go into a lockdown again, March was bad enough.

The papers have called this weekend 'scorchio', expect violent thunderstorms on Monday.  I don't want to go into another lockdown and the government are threatening it for next month, all because of Covidiots who want to party at the bars and have a jolly on the beach.  The roads were rammed due to a crash on the A30 caused by someone in a hurry to get down to the seafront, all carparks full by midday anyway.  There's also reports of people coming as early as 5am!

I sat in Elizabeth gardens Friday under the willow tree, it became cloudy and started spitting.  The park was very busy, my highlight was being with Serve On again as we cleaned the junk from the river Avon; and what a lot of junk we pulled out.  This included beer bottle's, masks and a bike; and yes we did find a rusty trolley.

Apparently Swindon are now on the virus watch list, that is a bit too close to home for me.  Everywhere I look is masks, got 2 from the phone shop next door to Poundland.  One says 'support our NHS' It's a bit cheap so I may get an embossed one done.  It's 40d in my flat and 29-30 outside, I was boling after cycling up to my parents on Saturday.

Today I went to the Salisbury Arts scene fair on the Greencroft, I would have loved to have done this but it was too short notice.  I am hoping to do the one in September in the market square, the lady who runs it is called Sally but I don't think she understands my autismn; I get the feeling she's not too keen on people with special needs.

Watched Catchphrase which isn't too bad, I had to hang my washing out so I was a bit late going up parents, will do washing on Friday's in the future.  I always fudge things up because I'm stupid and can't do any bloody thing right.

We might not go up to aunt Joans this Christmas as it's too close to the north where the spikes are.  Shame really as I wanted to see my boy, but he'll forget who I am when he's older and will want nothing to do with me.  Someone in China has already died of the plague, they are a dirty country and now it's been forced onto us!
