Going outside....

We went out for a visit today to....I've forgotten the name of the village and riverside. Sudfrey or something like that. From Nocton to Bardney and then straight through the village to the river.

Lots of cars on the road, all wanting to go faster....so I went much slower.

Beautifully quiet where we sat having our home made coffee....other than the jets above us...all at war with another county or some country like Lybia. Horrible screeching jets overhead and very threatening. Perhaps their preparing to shoot up some statues or hay fields just for the practice run.....

The river was busy too. Normally we see no ships, just like Nelson....but today there was a narrow boat and two cruisers. Very large cruisers! Actually the RAF could use them for targets.

Then there were the people on bycles ie cyclists with their wifey made sandwiches and battery biles which you don't have to pedal. Or so I'm told. For a few minutes we talked about going out on our bikes, then thought better about it.

So, we're in the very earliest stages of unlocking down and people must think its all over because all they want to do is come out and play. Well some of them...

According to a GovPoll out today....


  • 47% feel that the Govt announcements have gotten the unlocking procedures and priorities about right....
  • 37% think they're wrong and going too fast.....
  • The rest want the Govt to accelerate the process.....
We're in the 37% so will be viewing the mad dogs of an English woman with care.....whilst she gallops out and straight into an isolation ward!

Nothing like being out and about to raise the spirits though. WE really enjoyed it.

Came back for a great tomato sandwich, ordered stamp sets from the Royal Mail and watched tennis...

What a great day,,,,,
