Good Morning and Welcome!
It’s a brand new day, the sun is shining and it looks like we have a lovely Spring day in store. I am introducing my bright shiny new website which I hope you will visit and enjoy. In these pages you will find a regular blog, short stories (just right for a coffee time read!), original poetry and sometimes just thoughts for the day.
Your comments are always welcome – as are your tales of lockdown moments!
The lockdowns we’ve all experienced have brought many upsets, generally the lack of contact we are used to with our families and friends. However I have found that using Zoom, What’s App or Face Time for family meetings, arranged entertainments (or, of course, work!) can lessen the feelings of isolation. Seeing those familiar faces and sharing a smile and a chat really does help!
Daily exercise walks have been more enjoyable for the lack of traffic! Listening to the birdsong on a peaceful walk or when having coffee in the garden is a great pleasure, and something which has increased with the reduction in the volume of traffic. The quiet empty streets have also slowed life down, or so it seems, as we take up reading, gardening, knitting and board games to pass the time. Those of you who work from home may have a different view, as will those front line workers who help to keep the rest of us safe and the country working. Thank you every one.
Thank you for your time today and I look forward to getting to know you.
