Going Stir Crazy and Going Solo.
We are not allowed out unless we need to go out to get stuff
like food, food for pets, medications or stuff that is classed as jolly
important. So a trip to the beach with the kids will now be frowned on and you
will be told off and possibly fined. Although that may vary depending on which
country you live in. So if you do need to go out the best way to do this is
alone, keep your head down, as in the well-known saying. You don’t physically
need to keep your head down. I mean driving would be very tricky. Anyway back
to the point. Yes keep your head down and don’t talk to folk unless you need to
and keep some distance between yourself and, to put it bluntly Everyone.
It is still early days in the world lockdown where everyone
would prefer it if everyone else stayed at home. However everyone staying at
home is making everyone go stir crazy. And folk are doing all sort of things to
avoid going mad. If you are lucky enough to have a garden as I do then it may
well end up as a show garden unless you have kids and dogs then it will be
trashed. Making stuff is good and folk will be writing that novel they have
been planning to do for the last twenty years or making cakes the shapes of
popular building and the like.
Snail Racing is fun on a warm evening. Stick a number on half
a dozen snails and put them in the centre of a circle marked out on the ground.
Pick your favourite and make a small bet with either the family or the dog. If
you’re really keen do live racing online and make your fortune. Just remember
if you do make your fortune I helped with the idea and a small gift (no too
small and in cash not snails) would not be refused.
