Monday Musings
Apr. 13th, 2020 07:13 pmWe experienced a full ten-degree drop in temperature this morning. It felt very wintry and chilly. It improved a little during the day but certainly not sitting out in a garden day.
I had to get some provisions from the local store in Lower Road. I put on winter clothes again.
It seems strange to say that the long weekend feels more like a normal day. They seem to blur into one other. I have to stop and think what day it is let alone whether it a religious one or not. Menas nothing to me anyway. The opium of the people and all that.
The only bright thing at the moment is a steady selling trickle I get via eBay.
I have now three items to post tomorrow.
I wonder if Boris after his death scare with the virus will consider scrapping any plans to sell off the NHS?
At the end of this, I think the government will be accountable for many failures.
Also, I have noticed that because so many people are car owners, the issue of cars never enters the government's tiny minds. Many people see cars as an extension of their homes and some of the worst behaviour I have been seeing locally is car drivers with largely empty roads in front of them doing 60 and 70 mph in 30 mph zones and the police are so busy bullying the pedestrian public that they are taking zero action. How many of the journeys being made are, as they style it, 'essential'?
I feel that there may be societal damage ahead as well as economical.
But enough of the rant - I hope all of you are okay.
