For the first time since the lockdown eased I visited someone else's garden this afternoon to meet up with some band friends. We usually aim to get together once a month or so to play as a small group, so we took our instruments and played for an hour or so spread out round the garden - Brass Bands England guidelines are now that groups of up to six can play outside if they keep a suitable distance between them, so that is what we did. Hopefully the neighbours didn't mind the music! After we finished playing we had a pre-ordered lunch delivered by a local pub - roast dinners all round. Everyone seemed to be doing OK. Nobody - so far as they know - has had Covid. Only one - a nurse not on clinical duties - is still going into work. Most of us are working from home.
This morning I tackled various financial jobs, including organising refunds for flights for what was meant to be a holiday in Italy in July. I hope that next summer it will be possible to travel normally again, but guess that may depend on whether there is a vaccine. I also did an exercise class, which was hard work! TG spent the morning in her room, then did some photography homework this afternoon. H went for a run in the morning, then went for a 6km walk with her BF this afternoon. M went for a walk while I was out this afternoon.
H cooked a roast dinner for everyone, but I was still too full of my late lunch to want anything else to eat. After dinner we watched the first half of Star Wars Episode IV - the original Star Wars. I then had a self-care evening with a relaxing bath followed by a yin yoga class of long, slow stretches.
