12 months tomorrow, 23rd March, the UK went into lockdown. We should have been locked down 2 weeks before that, well that's my opinion and I know a lot would agree. I really didn't think 12 months down the line we would still have this pandemic with us and the horrific number of deaths.
UK will be having a day of reflection. A minutes silence will be held at 12 pm, followed by bell ringing. Prominent buildings and landmarks across the UK will be lit up and we have all been encouraged to stand on our doorsteps at 8 pm with phones, candles and torches to signify a ‘beacon of remembrance’.
Our businesses will be opening soon (they need to open) as many
have had to close their shops/pubs/restaurants for good and my heart
goes out to all those who've had their lives disrupted and in some cases
worse. The one business I'm looking forward to opening is my
hairdressers:) can't wait for that. If everything is going well with the
numbers and the vaccine roll out is still strong, they should open 12th
April and I've already asked for an early appointment even a short
notice cancellation.
What's lockdown, opening up, social distancing, impact on the local
community etc like in your corner of the world, I'd love to hear.
Stay safe.
Have a good week.
Ronnie
