So, do they still migrate? Or hang around all year because it's warmer?
I could Google it I guess, but lazy |

As I've been working from home since the end of March, I've not been anywhere near the bakery I usually use (around the corner from work) so decided to get into making sourdough (I did have a go at this a few years ago but didn't get much success, so I already had the few basic bits that make it easier, e.g. proving basket). It's taken about a month of adjustments and tweaks, but last night's efforts were particularly pleasing (both appearance and taste!). It's now on a par with what I was buying from the bakery but rather than costing £3.30 a loaf, this is setting me back about 55p including the electric bill! ____________________ TG. |

We have a bird table and bird bath on our patio.
Today I was sitting out enjoying the sun and even though I was sitting close to the bird bath, two Goldfinches came and had a drink and a bath.
Being that close was a real treat, and they stayed for a couple of minutes

So that’s it. Lockdown is over for us from today. Yay!
Airports are staying shut though. We don’t want filthy germ-ridden tourists coming in and spoiling our Covid-free existence.
We can go out, everything is open, shops etc, although bars & restaurants can only serve outside. No hardship really apart from it’s over 40 degrees.
In all honestly though now I can, I’m not bothered about going out. I think I’ve got Stuck-home syndrome ____________________ Whether you think you can, or think you can't, you're probably right |

I got given some free biscuits today.
They were only digestives and bourbons, neither of which I am especially fond, but when your biscuit tin is empty, anything free is always good.
A lot of the free stuff that NHS workers were given doesn't often filter down to us.
At first we had some nice little perks but then when the intensity of the situation sunk in, it felt a bit snide to go and claim things that were being given away to people who were working under much worse situations than me. Working desultorily from home 3 days a week has been more than enough of a pleasant result for me.
But a nurse came in today with some spare packets of biscuits, apparently a lorryload of McVities had turned up this morning and they had WAY too many, even for the Paediatric Ward.

And now I am home.
I decided to roll a joint, as ya do.
So the usual stuff was there, and I skinned on up, but whilst doing so I was poking around in the box and I found the stuff I acquired probably some 18 months ago now, which I had been warned about was VERY couchlocky.
So couchlocky was it alleged to be that I should ensure I had ALL the munchies I needed already in the house. I took heed of this, and was overjoyed to discover that it was indeed very couchlocky. But my life at the time was a bit stressy and although I knew it was tempting, I knew it was dangerous for me to get on a slide with stuff like that. So I wraped it carefully up and put it back in my stash box with a label entitled "Dead Man Walking", to remind me that it is EXTREMELY ZOMBIFYING. I seem to have scrawled "Lemon Kush?" on it, but I had some other LK once and it wasn't nearly as couchy.
But tonight ... I decided I might treat myself to a bit of it, just for a change. "What harm can it do?"
I'll be fine, thinks I, worst case scenario, if I get hungry I'll still be able to get up and eat all the biscuits I got from the nurses today, for my tea.
No, Jen.
No.
You are not moving from the sofa.
My EARS are throbbing.
I was supposed to go and get some cat food before I sat down ...
And I was going to ...
Nah, I might just sit here for a bit and grin inanely at you all grousing about ... whateverrrrrrrrr
I'm sure I will regret this at some point in the future, but for now Life is Very Mellow indeed. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |
