Rainy Month

Wow, what a lot of rain this month. About a fifth of the years total rain fell in this month.

I have not seen any reports of hosepipe bans!

Fifteenth October

Half way through another month and what is different? Er...

Fortunately we have managed to get fairly regular supermarket deliveries but it is disheartening to read of panic buyers every so often. We used to walk to the supermarket to get our groceries, topping up using the local shop but since all the lockdown started we began ordering online.

I despise the internet. Luddite? Far from it, I was excited by the internet when it first started but as time has gone on, there are dreadful companies such as Amazon which do nothing for honest retailers and surely the very worst of a bad bunch - Facebook, the most rotten and corrupt company to have existed and which is gradually destroying humanity in a way that Covid will never achieve.

October already

Is it really October? The days/weeks/months do seem to blend into one.

Whilst the days indeed seem to be almost identical, there surely will never be another year like this one.

I am reminded of Dickens... It was the best of times, it was the worst of times... except it is more... It was the oddest of times, it was the dullest of times.

Any other suggestions?
