Went down to pick up some parcels from the depot this morning, couldn't believe people were queueing at Primark at 8.30am, half an hour before it opens. They even had barriers up to make a separate lane for them.  :o

We've had similar here in Bristol Mark :o.

My mum and step-dad came down from Salop for an afternoon visit, lunch in the garden and exchange of Xmas and mother's day presents. First time they've seen the girls in the flesh since August (I was lucky enough to see them Mid-November).
I got sunburnt!

Good stuff, Will  :-bd..(apart from the sunburn.)

Well......Delighted to report that we've reached the heady 'heights' of zero cases of Covid per 100,000 in the population in Pembrokeshire. :-bd

Sad thing is...that means it can only get worse. X_X......Fingers crossed it's driven right the way down in the whole of the UK !!
Keep staying safe, chums !!

Cheers - Phil.  :)

Well I'm expecting a smaller third wave  aka Spanish Flu. 3 more marshalling shifts to do over Friday, Sat and Sun.

Once again well done Ian :).

Off to see a friend today, so my first social visit for 6-7 months. Really looking forward to it but it will seem weird after so long of not being able to socialise.

Good man, I restart at our vaccination centre again next Tuesday, after a couple of weeks pause to get the second doses out. The boy's pub reopened last Monday and they took £17,000 in the first four days, phew that's his job a bit more secure.  Got to Church for the first time since November on Sunday. Onward and upward!

Good for you, Ian.  :-bd

Wish the pubs were open in Scotland. Ours will open on Monday - you can go in until 8 pm but won't sell alcohol inside!*  :o

*understand it's the same in England but, so far, it will be possible to drink indoors there on 17 May.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Our local eaterie opens on Monday but we won't go out until we've had our second jab.

Must admit, going to our local caff for a fried breakfast is one of the things I've missed most over the past year.

I have a fried egg sandwich for Sunday brunch. It is the only tried food I am allowed.
