Well not surprisingly I was allowed into work once I had ticked a few boxes to say I didn’t have any Covid symptoms, as if that makes a bloomin difference!!

That's as good as a vaccination!

Not much has changed from when I posted earlier other than its daylight, still dripping wet out there and bleedin' cold.

I'm beginning to suspect the ambulance the other night was for no3. They are in a "bubble" with their daughter (medical problems) and grandkids but their car hasn't moved nor have I seen her car here. I'd have thought he'd be back at work today but his works van is still sitting outside.

Just returned from taking SWMBO for her physiotherapy appointment - it ain't half quiet out there. Very little traffic, empty car parks and only a two person queue at Boots Pharmacy - which is just as well, as you have to queue outside in the freezing wind and sleet showers - your pills etc. are handed over through a hatch.

it seems to be getting worse than getting better,lets hope for some light at the end of the tunnel so we can return to some sort of normal and be able to enjoy the things we have worked hard to get.

We bought a new caravan last year not looking good for much use this year either.

Looks like our next holiday will be on the driveway

Getting a bit stir crazy here, we're both missing hopping on a train and bugring off somewhere. All mainland Scotland is in the highest level, not allowed to travel outwith your own area and talking about increasing the restrictions in an announcement this afternoon. Badly in need of a haircut but that's a no-no. The only "days out" for a long time have been going shopping.

Its wishing down here now. Going to have to brave the elements at some point and fill the bird feeders.

Still nice here, but very chilly.. the roads down here this morning were busier than I have seen them in Months, either we have 90% of the countries workers here or folk are just out and about as usual.
