Glorious sunny day today, while waiting at the bus stop  I saw two magpies having a conversation.  I don't speak magpie but they seemed to be answering each other in their language, I'm very superstitious and salute when I see a magpie.  People probably think I'm nuts, but who cares. Lovely pink clouds last night as I waited for the bus home, I can see Harnham from the top of Festival Avenue and the TV mast. Television sets stopped working once one evening all over Salisbury because a cow was rubbing her bum against the mast, wonder she didn't get electrocuted.


Vaccinations of over 50's people are happening quickly now, I'm hoping to get mine soon.  I'm thinking of visiting Teignmouth in May Monday-Fri, and then Fri-Monday in Exmouth.

It will be chaotic in June-July, if people behave themselves then we can get out of this, bet I guarantee you there will be Covid idiots who'll try and wreck it.  The government say pub gardens could open as early as April 12th, June 21st looks like the D-day when we could get back to normal if covid idiots don't ruin it.  I saw a white camper van trying to park up in the carpark in the canal this morning, I was a bit suspect but I can't judge.

There is building work on Blue boar Row, I heard a load of drilling last night.  One part of the road has been freshly tarmacked, a bit bumpy in places.  

Lady Gaga's dog got dog-napped last night the person walking it got shot.  She's offered a reward but I doubt if she'll see it again, probably be used for dog fighting or she'll get a huge ransom.  Lady Gaga is an American rock singer with some strange dress sense, tries to copy David Bowie sometimes.

Captain Tom Moore is being laid to rest tomorrow, soldiers from the Yorkshire Regiment will carry his coffin; sometimes I am angry that the Chinese virus got him.  Churches around the UK will ring the bells at noon, on his tomb, it will say 'I told you I was old'.  We'll all miss him but we'll see him again.

I'm looking forward to spring when I can visit the seaside again and sit in the sun watching the world go by..

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.
