Day 85 - Monday 8th June 2020

Location: London, UK

COVID-19 / Coronavirus Outbreak


Lockdown

Little things are sometimes the most irritating.

The one that is infuriating me at the moment?  Arrows on the floor in Tesco.

I understand why Tesco have implemented this.  It's a sensible thing to do.  The problem is that EVERYONE IS IGNORING IT.

As a person who generally follows the rules, I'm the kinda gal who will spend longer in the shop because I've forgotten something and have to go back a few aisles and will follow all the one way systems.  90% of other people don't seem to do that and I end up fuming and tutting behind my mask.

Therefore, can Tesco do either of the following: get rid or the arrows or enforce them?

And don't get me started on "keeping 2 meters apart" in supermarkets.  Apparently this rule does not exist once you are inside the hallowed halls of food.

And rant over

*I'm sure Tesco aren't the only place to do it but that's the only place I've been and has lead me to such rage.

1st November 2020

  Location: London, UK  COVID-19 / Coronavirus Outbreak World Vegan Day 🌍🍃🐄🐔🐖 The 1st November is World Vegan Day. I have two thoughts on that - firstly, that every day seems to be National or World something day and secondly that for me, every day is VEGAN DAY 😁 As I have alluded to my veganism in this blog,  I thought   I'd let you know what lead me to this point. At the age of 8, I connected the dots that the meat on my plate and the animal in the field were very much connected and I couldn't bear the idea of an animal dying just so I could eat it.  Although I now have many more reasons which support my choices, animals dying was and still is my primary motivator for being vegetarian/vegan. I used to eat fish for a long time, but I could never eat a fish if it still looked like one and gradually I found I couldn't face the idea any longer. In 2014 I decided that for Lent that year it would be a good challenge to go vegan - I loved and ate dairy on a dai...

Days 151 - 169 August 2020

  Location: London, UK  COVID-19 / Coronavirus Outbreak So I kind of lost steam with the blog. I'm not sure how but suddenly a day, a month had passed since I'd written anything. The end of August came and went.   Some highlights for me:  Attending a socially distanced vegan supper club (great food, great wine, great company).   I took part in an unrehearsed reading of The Effect by Lucy Prebble which was really fun, very interesting play and one I missed seeing a few years ago, so I was pleased to have the chance to perform it. Decided to "Eat Out to Help Out" and went on a 33,400 step vegan food journey across London which was great fun! Mildred's for breakfast, Eat Chay for lunch, sweet treat cookies from Humbledough and Neat Burger for dinner - good thing we walked as far as we did! Visited Eltham Palace in South East London - one of the English Heritage properties which has re-opened the house and not just the gardens.  Fascinating house...

1st - 7th October 2020

  Location: London, UK  COVID-19 / Coronavirus Outbreak Lockdown If you have watched the TV show  Succession , then I think you may enjoy a three part documentary on BBC iPlayer about the Murdoch family called "The Rise of the Murdoch Dynasty". It's a fascinating documentary about the family and the terrifying number of political connections and power wielded by the family. And if you  haven't  seen Succession - well, I think it was one of the best dramas of the last couple of years. Superbly acted, filmed and a great story full of pretty despicable people.  Great stuff!
