Returned
to my dawn walking routine this morning. A three mile walk around the
harbourside (via Vauxhall Bridge/Pump House/Perro’s Bridge/Gaol Ferry
Steps/home) before breakfast – back home by 6.45am. A rather grey+gloomy
morning and no sun (and even a hint of rain)… but, somewhat ironically, the sun
appeared as I approached our front door at the end of my walk! I later
discovered that I had apparently missed the opportunity to see a seal at
Cumberland Basin this morning (presumably on the Avon side of the lockgates as
no river traffic has been moving over recent weeks).
Mr
Johnson returned to work today (amid lots of ongoing criticism of the
government about it failing to act at appropriate times/lives could have been
saved etc); there’s much speculation about a possible phased easing of lockdown
rules… although, to be fair to me, he seems to be emphasising
‘continuation’ and that we’re in ‘moment
of maximum risk’.
Completed
a quick sketch in the kitchen and also finished my Tom Sharpe book (and started
‘The Virgin Suicides’).
Watched
“Annie Hall” before supper with the wonderful Diane Keaton.
During
the evening, we tried to watch the first episode of “Wolf Hall” (Moira had
watched the series, but I hadn’t)… but there was some sort of technology issue
and we had to give up (for now)!
