It is the same here, I didn't know there were so many dogs in our neighbourhood! Every one is out walking the dog, taking the kids for a bike ride or the more mature like us, taking a stroll. Interestingly we have never seen many of the people we see go past or see on our walks. Are theyย usually so busy that they usually drive but now have the time to be out and about exercising?ย ย Leigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All good here, well past the fourteen days since our last shift at the OPT and still โ healthyโ so,ย happy about that. Getting pretty good at doing jigsaw puzzles etc but like most people realise itโs for our own good and hopingย forย some normality somewhere down the line. At least we have got a free cruise with Princess and a trip to China to look forward to but maybe the China ย trip has lost a tad of ย its appeal .
