Christmas in quarantine! And it turns out a it’s a bit like a normal Christmas – a lot of sitting about, too much food and a pile of shite on the telly…
Merry Christmas!
Boxing day was the end of our 10 day quarantine so I had a nice walk up Reigate Hill.
The weather Reigate is awful; even the worst day in Luz is 53 times better than any English winter day.
Leith Hill lost in the mist
New year’s eve and people are glad to see the back of 2020 but there were 55,000 new cases and very nearly 1,000 COVID related deaths today so I can’t see that much changing for a while in 2021 and I wouldn’t be at all surprised if we didn’t hit 2,000 deaths a day by the end of February.
On the travel front with France, Spain, Portugal on lockdowns and most of the world now wary of anyone travelling from the UK it doesn’t look like I’m going to be able to get out of the UK for quite a while which is a bit of a bummer.
I’ve pencilled in the 1st of April for a visit to Normandy but whether that goes ahead or not is anyone’s guess.
