Covid 19 Lockdown Thursday
Run and Gym with Jo, before lockdown to computer most of day, a day of rains. Will I ever catch up with all the emails and stuff to do in order to do the stuff I want to do? I've put myself forward to do the web pages for the Loch Ness Wellington bash, another… Continue reading Covid 19 Lockdown Thursday

Coronovirus Lockdown – 6 Wednesday – Forest School and numbers
After a very dry time, rain arrived and greened the spring landscape, glistening the soil, cleaning the sap green leaves. I notice this year the ochre green of the oak leaves emerging. The ash still naked. Opening stick circle, one trying to fabricate a lift using magnates, which prooved to be so strong, they bruised… Continue reading Coronovirus Lockdown – 6 Wednesday – Forest School and numbers
Coronavirus Lockdown – Week 6 – HUBBLE
Distracted, I find this page on the Hubble. 1922 Edwin Hubble, at the Pasadena Observatory, measured the distances and velocities of galaxies, which led to his discovery of the expanding Universe. Work began in 1982 on a 2.4 meter mirror, and in April 1990, NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope was launched into Earth orbit from the… Continue reading Coronavirus Lockdown – Week 6 – HUBBLE
Coronavirus Lockdown Week 5 Saturday
Bike ride to collect asparagus, computer catching up, quiz, light food, ticked off by Ann for visiting Janet, asparagus run, Candace quiz. Do one thing a day that challenges you, someone said as a guide for this time. I almost didn't. Collecting my bike from Huggy (£8, here's 10, are you sure?) I thought, why… Continue reading Coronavirus Lockdown Week 5 Saturday
Coronavirus week 5 Friday – Trump disinfectant
Trump - when you think he cannot do worse, does worse. Who would vote for him now? This will go down surely in the annals of Trump, the recommendation of ultraviolet light or drinking or injecting disinfectant as a cure for CORVID 19 . Trumps daily press conferences have provided a canvas for Trump’s rage,… Continue reading Coronavirus week 5 Friday – Trump disinfectant

Coronavirus Lockdown Week 4 Tuesday
We've had Easter. The days were like other days, lockdown, empty streets. One Christian head conducted his mass from his kitchen, far more impressive than an empty cathedral. I haven't written in a few days. Weather has kept me outside watching seeds germinate. We had two family zoom meetings on (Easter) Sunday. Michael, Candy, Edward,… Continue reading Coronavirus Lockdown Week 4 Tuesday
