I finally read the government guidance on how we are supposed to function once we are opened. It was about 56 pages. There's no way I'll remember it all, but I have the gist of it.

I visited to Wickers Gymnastics Club. There was quite a few coaches there preparing things for opening. This is stark contrast to Hawth where we can not event get into the Leisure Centre without making prior arrangements. It was  good to see everyone at Wickers again. We will restart adults' session on 30 July. I am looking forward to seeing people and being able to interact with them in a more direct way. I gather some clubs are not able to open on the date; it can take a while to prepare for opening under these new circumstances. 

We are still walking the dog on a Wednesday evening. The hour's walk is great.

We are finally picking more French beans from the allotment. There's not loads of them, we picked a meal's worth last yesterday. We seem to have had to wait so long this year to get enough vegetables from the allotment to prevent the need to buy them.

The honey suckle has produced loads of bright red berries. I gather these ones are not edible (though some are). I think it is a good year for fruit.

Virgin Internet finally broke this morning. There have been many rumours on how things are straining under the load, but we have had minimal disruption until today. Of course, I had a Zoom session. I used my phone's connection, and was quite surprised at how well it worked. I reckon the sessions use about 1.5GB / hour, though I'm told it depends up on the number of screens you are running. You wouldn't want to do it all the time. I will appreciate the arrival of 5G, despite the bad press it has received in recent months.
