I stayed at my parents last night, I saw some fireworks whilst on the bus by Bedford Road, Devises Road; only a couple going off tonight otherwise it's probably been cancelled.  There was a fog this morning, so I ran off a few photo's.

Coles has had another fairground accident in Southampton, they were in Salisbury once, and someone fell off the big wheel. Also once when someone was passing, workmen were welding a bar across one of the seats of the big wheel as it had fallen off apparently!


Lockdown starts today with all non essential shops closed, I'm surprised McDonalds is open for take aways only.  

Mum doesn't want decorations this year, but she's going to have them; I want everything to look Christmassy.  I'm not going to be depressed because of this Chinese pandemic!  We're all worried that Michael Gove is going to try and extend the deadline to mid December, hopefully not.  I'll go to Poundland and get some decorations, I'll sneak them up when parents are in bed.

Germany and Sweden have been added to the at risk list, so people coming back must quarantine for 14 days.  

I went to Weatherspoons for the last time and got the very last table, they started turning people away after that, it was chaos in town with people taking advantage before we all get banged up!

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...

There's days I feel like writing, and days I don't.  Looks like things are going as they are until June, mos of the summer will soon be over and I can't bare the thought of that and not seeing my parents. Awoke to the sound of emergency verhicles going past, sounded like police cars. I did a perscription for Lisa at no 11 this morning, I'm happy to help.  Dot my neighbour is in hospital as she's broke her leg, poor thing has breast cancer.  I met her brother who seems a nice chap, also we have a couple of new black birds visiting ther garden.  Lisa has called them Billie and Elsie, I hope the perigrins from the cathedral leave them alone this time.   I caught my grill alight couple of days ago when I tried to cook some burgers, I finished them off in the oven.  I will have to use my George Forman machine now, as when I tried turning the grill on to do some fish fingers, my electrics flipped so my TV and heating went off.   I went for a walk r...

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.
