Day 130 - Thursday 23rd July 2020

Location: London, UK 

COVID-19 / Coronavirus Outbreak

Lockdown

I heard about this from one of my favourite podcasts, Make Me Smart.

This is a website called "Looks Like You Need Iceland".  On the website it says:

"You’ve been through a lot this year and it looks like you need
the perfect place to let your frustrations out. Somewhere big,
vast and untouched. It looks like you need Iceland. Record your scream and we’ll release it in Iceland’s beautiful, wide-open spaces. And when you’re ready, come let it out for real. You’ll feel better, we promise."


So if you need to really scream and have it released to the wide open space of Iceland, here is your opportunity.  Enjoy.

Day 150 - Wednesday 12th August 20200

  Location: London, UK  COVID-19 / Coronavirus Outbreak Certain people have always been a bit disgusting in the way in which they treat their surrounding. The number of surgical masks I see lying on the street every day is quite revolting.  Not only is it an act of pure sloth to just throw it on the floor without a care in the world for your environment, but surely in times when we are being asked repeatedly to wash our hands and use hand sanitiser it's an almost an act of aggression to disgard something potentially infectious in such a disdainful way? A plea therefore - please throw your salived filled masks in the bin, not on the floor.  Astonishing to have to ask really!

Day 54 - Friday 8th May 2020

Location: London, UK COVID-19 / Coronavirus Outbreak Lockdown VE Day Today marked 75 years since the end of World War 2.  Many street parties were planned and the early May bank holiday was moved to a Friday to aid in the festivities. Lots of people around the country still marked the day with at-home celebrations and of course there was a 2 minutes silence at 11am. Now feels like an appropriate moment to reflect on how, as a nation, we can work together to triumph - whether that is over an evil dictatorship or over a rampant disease.

Day 139 - Saturday 1st August 2020

Location: London, UK  COVID-19 / Coronavirus Outbreak Lockdown My church opened a while ago, initially for an hour a day, so that parishioners could visit and pray. Then about a month ago, it opened for daily masses but with social distancing in place.  Track and trace is done at the door, masks are worn and instead of holy water by the door we have... holy hand gel? It's all a bit strange to say the least and I doubt the church has ever been cleaner, but I think it's good that places of worship are able to open.  They are necessary to so many as a place for quiet and time for reflection, as well as operating as the centres of community, of which they are for so many people.
