In the time of the virus: day 70 (Monday)
It’s day 70. It’s no longer March, nor April, nor even May. Now we’re in June. Spring has gone, and it’s officially summer. And I’m fearful that all those hard weeks of lockdown are being wantonly thrown away by the … Continue reading
In the time of the virus: day 69
Another scorching hot day, so off out to the allotment straight after breakfast, for some more much-needed weeding before it becomes too hot to be out there. Then back indoors in time for our Sunday ‘trip’ – this week we … Continue reading
In the time of the virus: day 68
Just the briefest of posts today, Saturday. Another hot day, so we went out for an early walk in the morning cool. Down to the river, then we parted ways and I took a longer stroll while he went back … Continue reading
In the time of the virus: day 67
Such a busy day, and unfortunately the thing that fell off the list today was writing this post. So a very short piece, before I turn in for the night. There was a sweet sadness to the day – it … Continue reading

In the time of the virus: day 62
Today I was going to write about two things – one in the past (a wonderful visit to Bordeaux), the other for the future (of Bath City Farm). But instead I’ll just stick to one as another bad night has … Continue reading
In the time of the virus: day 60
Day 60. I can hardly believe what I’m writing here. Our 60th day in lockdown. I reflected on what this has meant for us and wrote it down. Then I deleted it all. Far too negative and I don’t think … Continue reading
In the time of the virus: day 57
A (comparatively speaking) busy day here today. An optician appointment that should have taken place early in lockdown but didn’t, rebooked due to some slightly odd visual issues (thankfully all fine). Family zoom call to celebrate a certain birthday. Emails … Continue reading
In the time of the virus: day 56
Whew. I slept so well last night. What a blessed relief. I felt much much more human today, and able to do some of the things that had slipped through the net last week. One of which was sending round … Continue reading
