The Corona Diaries – Day 27

Well Johnson is still in intensive care. The government stumbles on. There is still very little testing. Still not enough protective gear. Still hundreds of people dying. Still politically manicured statistics!

Today was dull. There was a cold easterly wind off the North Sea. It was back to jacket, gloves and hat for my daily walk.

I set off to do an hour and a half. The wind was very chilly, even the yellow celandine were closed up, but the birds were still singing.

I looked over the fields to see an undulating hedge of white May blossom looking like a snowdrift.

A flock of a dozen ducks flew over my head, quacking madly.

In the course of my walk down the lanes I only encountered one car, one tractor, two dog-walkers, six lone cyclists, one father with his young daughter out for a ride and one very sweaty jogger. The lockdown is working.

We are both healthy though I’ve still got this sniffle and a bit of a cough – I think it’s hayfever!

Today I was playing Cream very loud!

I’ve been working on my latest book – Farm 703 – The Human Project. I’m still waiting for permission to use a photo. I might have to search for another.

Another day in isolation. It’ll soon be 4 weeks! Only another year to go!
