Able to sit in the garden today, bonus

Been in garden since breakfast, digging the veg plot as well as planting a few potato's, parsnips & carrots.
Also got the lawn scarified was full of moss.

Managed to have morning coffee and lunch outside also but its getting a bit breezy now.

We are having a 'front garden drinks do' shortly, at 3.30. All neighbours out for a (shouted) natter.

Raining here

All animals exercised

Jet washed some of our resin drive, I’m absolutely done in

The gardens looking good full of forget me nots. Reading a lot with Classic FM on low in the background. Stay safe all of you and your families. God bless.

On On On.

Just had a Tesco delivery thought we would treat ourselves & ordered a pack of smoked salmon. Guess which item we didn’t receive

Its been almost a week since anyone posted on this thread so hope everyone is well

A special mention for those on here that are on the front line and still working despite the risks

So how is everyone coping with the lockdown ?

For us we have slipped into a bit of a routine of going for our once daily walk each morning (have a number of different routes we do from home), been doing a touch more than an hour though usually 5 or 6 miles. Lots of Cyclists/Joggers/Walkers/dog walkers about (to be expected with gyms closed) but everyone is polite giving each other space as they pass.

Afternoons this week have been a bit of gardening and sitting outside having coffee and meals in the garden making most of the good weather. Luckily we have a biggish garden so plenty to do, the weeds are losing the battle for the first time ever. Our Patio area is also well isolated from any neighbours.
Inside jobs have been put on hold until the cold & rain come.

Evenings its in front of the TV watching whatever but will admit we are drinking more than normal. Usually if at home will have a bottle of wine each night at weekends (Fri, Sat & Sun) with me having an occasional beer and Cathy a G & T. Well its most nights currently bit like been on holiday

Still main thing is to stay healthy for all of us and get to the other side of this thing, lets hopes so.

We’ve gotten into the habit of getting showered & changed early as it would be so easy to sit in pj’s all day. Luckily the weathers excellent & have spent a lot of time in the garden reading. I usually have a early morning walk around a mile & a half between 06:30-0700 each morning. Felt a bit down this morning as today is/was the start of the cricket season, still it’s for the best & think of the money I’m saving. We have a family WhatsApp call every night at 18:30 which helps. Had emails from friends who are not doing so well but coping.

Stay safe everyone & to the people still working to try & keep things normal, God bless you.
