    Bananas - nobody is meant to be sitting around on the seafront, so I guess the beach huts are shut up. They are discouraging sunbathing etc. Keep moving, or go home! And if you are not a local, go home!

    We went out for my 5k today, but we kept away from the seafront and just ran down the main road , through a park I have never seen before and down some side streets. Then back again. It was HOT! There is no traffic, just a few empty buses going past. Streets deserted except for one or two kids on bikes. A few people in the park. I was pleased that I had got out and boosted my exercise calories. 950 total today.

    DS sent a video of the kids opening their present from us - a light up globe that shows stars at night. Bea said it was "The best Easter ever!"

    It would probably have been a formal night tonight on the cruise, but I'm not dressing up. Having Hairy Bikers, broccoli and a bottle of red. Bananas, we always have cocktail hour. :oB)

    Glorious weather here, but it's set to change tomorrow and get much colder. Norway will be cold, windy, snowy and rainy. We were set to go on a trip to a pretty fishing village. Brrrr! :p

    Hospital underwear 🩲 theory- Yeah placental abruption everything was cut off or blood soak rotting in a bag so tossed it in the biohazard ☣️ bin. Doctor laughed at that nurse shocked, well who going to wash them? Why would I want that stinky shoes 👟 for a week in my room? I left the hospital hubby y MIL shielding me y yelling in Spanish at anyone who tried to look my way as I left in red fall caution socks y a hospital gown buns for the world to see y those period panties see through useless for hiding anything baby screaming in my arms boobs leaking. So yeah the clean 🧼 underwear idea useless. Plus Docs don’t care just as long as you bathe regularly.

    Easter time for my Netflix y regular routine.

    @Machka you have warmer weather to be in shorts all year round!

    <3<3<3

    I'm hot ... because of constant hotflashes. On and on throughout the day. I lose count of how many I have.

    The weather isn't particularly warm. We're heading into winter now so it's cooling off but I've still got a tank top and shorts at hand in case I go through a particularly hot, tingly, nauseating set of the things. And a sweat jacket for the 5 minutes after when I'm freezing.

    I've also got a small USB fan which is on and off and on and off all day long.

    It's so annoying but there isn't much I can do right now.

    On the hair debate - I don't do anything to down there, never have. If I am going to be wearing a swimming costume I snip the side bits that might stick out. Doesn't it itch? Or get a rash?

    Lots of love to all, Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    Not if you do the hot shower, shampoo and condition steps I mentioned. I use a zinc-based shampoo like I do after a very long bicycle ride, rinse well, then put the conditioner everywhere from about knees up. Leave it for a bit and rinse well again.

    During the shampoo cycle, I'm lathery shampoo suds from head to toe.

    Fabulous cakes SuziQ!

    We are singing along with my singing teacher! MY HEART WILL GO ON and THE STREET WHERE YOU LIVE. Now SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW etc. Etc. Wonderful! Go Jason! :D<3 I BELIEVE now. THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM. :p

    The thing I most miss about the cruise is the dancing. I would have been line dancing at 9 this morning. And soon to start ballroom dancing before and after dinner. We always had a ballroom lesson after lunch on sea days.

    Neighbors got friends driving up barbecue going lots of congregating on their patio side by side. No wonder In my city the virus 🦠 keeps spreading ! Might as well call the quarantine off they’ll spread to everyone by morning! It’s so noisy outside it’s unreal just cause it’s Easter doesn’t mean a free ticket 🎫 to stop doing the measures put in place to save everyone we can! Yesterday quiet 🤫 today sounds like the schools open with a carnival 🎡

    Agrivating just agrivating.

    Venting this is frustrating so many kids being exposed I can hear babies even next door as cars drive up with their friends (not even family) coming for food. No masks no nothing just beer 🍺 y food. There not the only ones can hear homes all over the area! We have over 20+ cases just in my zip code! One home on the street behind us y one up on our road a few house down has coronavirus that hasn’t woken these nuts up!

    Update: Lol older neighbor called the cops 🚓 on a few lol they all went home. Some got in cars left probably to try at a different home

    My dad is just figuring out that the stay at home order means him too. He wanted to go clean up some natural debris at church. He would have a tough time convincing anybody that that is essential. He has been out there putting flowers on graves. Now he is digging dandelions in our yard. He means well but he is at risk.

    Very little news here. Planning on an outing tomorrow for groceries and a prescription. Thankful that our family and friends are doing well so far. Trying to make peace between my knee and the ministepper.
    Good health to you all,

    Amber- I would definitely have called the police. But then I am older. ;) Unbelievable behaviour. Grrrrr!

    Our electric kettle gave up the ghost late this afternoon. It was a very cheap one. DH said, get a better one, so I've ordered a Dualit from Amazon. For these British tea addicts an electric kettle is a necessity. We even have special planned hydropower arrangements for the surges in kettle needs at times of national need, like the FA cup final half time! They keep the water ready and let it out a minute before the break. Press that button!
    For the time being I've found our old travel kettle that we used to take to France because they don't have tea stations in the hotel rooms. Criminal! We took our own and our own teabags. :D

    Beth- They just came back double the cars counted 20 cars at 1 house!! So yup it will go up. Folks were cooperating but holidays everyone is Meme me meeeeeee attitudes.

    Rebecca- They actually are recommending to write items you want y isles even check availability before going to cut time in half well so you know oh their out of grape juice 🧃 guess apple juice it is! That way your not searching an hour in one isle for something that’s been bought up. Lol here the managers make you move if you linger.

    1.53million people in my city 🌃 they aren’t taking the threat serious today! Our over 700+ cases will triple in a few weeks time let this incubate then bam numbers will rise all because of today.
