Wednesday: Missing Masks

Today I was the victim of an extremely minor Covid crime. I had ordered some face masks from Etsy which were delivered today - or, at least, the envelope was delivered. Empty. At first I thought it was a packing error, then realised that the bottom of the envelope had been tampered with. Someone - presumably a postal employee - had opened it, taken the contents and stuck it back down again. As crimes go, this one was so ridiculous as to be funny! I emailed the Etsy seller with pictures of the envelope so they can complain and hopefully get some money back from the Post Office, and they are going to send me replacements.


It was another busy day, with work this morning, a yoga class this afternoon which both H and TG did alongside me, a three mile walk, and a band committee meeting by Zoom this evening. We are in the process of registering as a charity, and had do go through the new constitution which was dry but necessary. H made beef pie and mash for dinner, which was just right for a wet and miserable evening.


On our walk today another willow had come down over the canal tow path, just missing a moored boat. Fortunately it was easy enough to climb over or under, according to preference. We also walked past an open canal side pub with a few hardy customers sitting outside - today really wasn't the weather for it, although at least at that time it wasn't raining.

Someone stole your masks! How annoying.

Ridiculous wasn't it! The person who made them sent me some more which arrived today, and hopefully will get compensation from the Post Office.
