That's an old shot I've dredged up from the archives February 2019.

Cool shot!

Great weather!

Ah,  I was wondering about that as covid here would put a stop to that at the moment.

The all-pervading menace

Indeed,  its beginning to get a bit boring being the undertone of everything going on.

It's hard not to feel depressed.

Think positive - we're on the way to Spring

Very cool shot.  Now that's not your typical winter weather, is it?

UPDATE:  Sorry, just read through the rest of the thread and saw it was archival footage.  But still, for Feb that is nice weather.

Yes, an exceptionally fine pre-covid, carefree February afternoon in 2019

No worries

We t out for a walk yesterday and trying to find a new route that’s not mobbed with people ended up on a footpath that was a foot deep in mud.  Gales up to 8 today and 9’s forecast tomorrow.  Will just have to create in the workshop instead.

I’d settle for a hard frost at the moment.

Unfortunately DA there is not much you or I or anybody can do about the weather.  At times I wish there was a way to control the weather.  So we continue on and try to make the best of what comes.

To take up some of my time I am taking an online course for underwater photography.  Not sure how that will turn out but decided to give it a shot anyway.

A good walk would do me good, but we're stuck indoors for a while longer yet.

I think you're due another deluge looking at the forecast.

I'm making a table at the moment.

Cool shot!

Yep. Twiddling our thumbs. The TV and PC are working overtime

Im doing my usual live streaming of MSNBC (audio only) whilst sitting in the conservatory knocking things off my todo list.  Next job is going through photos to get them ready for printing.

Lashing down on my conservatory roof at the moment,   I should go out to the workshop and get the heater going for later so its warm enough to stain the table.

Another helping of Netflix this afternoon for us I reckon.

Good that you're keeping active. Once our quarantine is over we can go walking within 1Km of the house. The curfew will be in force for a while (18h00 - 06h00) but as it's dark then it doesn't matter.

Anything in particular ?

Thats more restrictive than here,  but is it working?

DAFlys Posted at 1-20 03:08

Outside the Wire,  The Italian,  and series:  The Crown,  Lupin.  Whatever takes our fancy.

I expect so. Early signs.

Ahhh, you must have good woodworking skills to take on making a table.  Stay safe.

I have outside the wire just not watched it yet.  Looks good.

Leaks here today suggest lockdown until Easter and then back to the tiers.
