Went to St Paul's on Sunday, it's the second advent Sunday and lots of the children dressed up as shepards or Mary and Joseph, had to wait by the door as I didn't put my name down.  It's carols in the carpark next Sunday, I'm in two minds whether to go or not.

Some people are coming before Christmas to clear out Dot's flat, I will save some of her pots as Sanctuary Housing will only trash them anyway.  i asked Hugh for advice, i hope he doesn't think I'm wierd.

Looks like London is going to go into tier 3 because they have had a huge spike of Corona virus.  No one is bothering to social distance there, and these stupid protests against lockdown are making things worse.  None of them were wearing masks so they will catch it and put more pressure on the NHS, who are now choosing who has ventilators or not.  There will be an update on the news tonight as apparently cases are off the chart, schools have been closed and must go online.


I tried social distancing today in Salisbury but people kept bumping into me, I'm glad I got my decks from poundland while I could, because they are running low in stock.

Mums foot was hurting again, so we swapped foot stools, watched a black and white version of Great expectations with Sir John Mills in.  I read the book by Charles Dickens.

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.
