I know nothing of Lock down... Do you live in an area to which it is applied? I'm mereley in isollation, for 14 days prior to a hospital matter - a Dayward... but as I live alone so have no escort to bring me home post-treatment, I might be in for an overnight. It came rather "Short notice" (i.e on the first day of 14 days isolation, so nowt in store). Right now, I'm awaiting for a neighbour to go out so that I can drop a note through her door to ask if she could get the remaining provisions needed (without seeing each other) to buy me any lightweight items needed. In hopes. I'd better make a list for her, in hope. (I'm getting hungry)

I wonder..... Will we still think it normal for millions (well, lots) of people passing my house en route to the railway station. Will it be normal for people going to ther work offices instead of enlarging their houses to accomodate office space (or for some jobs, their secretaty's office, waiting and parking for clients??) Will we cease to attend Shops and Town Centres of cafe's, and having Lorry loads of delivery vehicles fighting for street parking to deliver every petty thing to our houses??? ... and where will Barbers be (something for the weekend, sir), Solicitors, be witout a Town Centre? Will we no longer need to buy phones, etc and have little red kiosks in the street to concverse with anyone. We have already changed from Paypackets in envelpes made up in every Factory office, and just an email saying how much is loaded into your virtual bank to get at with your plastic card. .. assuming that Bank scamming is no longer allowed? ??

We have a system in some French towns regarding delivery. The big lorries deliver to a car park on the edge of town. Smaller vans pick-up and deliver.

We're in Lock down but not a bad as last time, I was supposed to go out tonight but because they forecast storm Alex I decided to stay in. Would you believe it, it's been dry all day and no signs of any storm.

Morning all: Nasty weather got here late last night and is still raining now. I am fed up of hearing about Trump already, are we going to be bombarded with hourly bulletins about his condition.

I hope Trump learns a lesson from this - but I doubt he will.

A very helpul Neighbour would collect some provisions for me. I wrote a list but waited until the route to her letterbox would be best isolated if I waited until the populace had gone .... Then I realized that it would give a rather different appearance if I was seen leaving her door after dark? So I waited until today .... and bumped into her in the street ... we stayed some steps away.

Morning all: Another dark and dreary day, off into town this morning. Miracles happen you see, Mr Trump catches the virus and three days later back at home.

Because Trump is such a con man, we can't really know if he's had the virus at all, or if it's a ploy. Fake noos?
