31.01.2021 A bit of a zombie outbreak.

 ~~

Sunday 31st 29F, bright sunshine again but with 1-2cm of snow lying. Walked to the lanes and was dressed too warmly again. A salt spreading lorry passed. As did quite a lot of traffic. I had left half an hour later than usual. A few Chaffinches and Bullfinches in the roadside hedges. A single shot from hunters and then silence.

More EU zombies have been demonstrating against the "false rumours" that there is a pandemic. Give them all simple jobs in Covid wards with biohazard symbols tattooed on their foreheads.

More Danish zombies are returning home from foreign holidays via Hamburg, on the train, to avoid detection, testing or [inconvenient] quarantine. Tattoo their foreheads with biohazard symbols.

More US, right-wing, <cough> journalists are claiming that Biden is coming after them for supporting Chump. All this fake paranoia just for being overpaid and corrupt, neo-fascist, fake news, press retards? Give them all their well-deserved, Darwin Awards, swastika lapel badges and signed posters of Goebbels.

Trillionaire, lifetime dictator Pootin has wheeled out a pretend, fall guy for his billion dollar palace. Seriously? He has not convinced the incredibly brave demonstrators. 4000 arrested so far. That'll be what they claim is democracy in Russia.

30.01.2021 Such a todo about nothing at all.

Saturday 30th -5C/23F White frost but clear. With sunshine on offer. Even a light, northerly breeze to add to the chill. I'm going to try my usual walk today. 

I was warmly dressed as clomped off towards a slightly dog-eared, full moon. The low, blinding sun had only just risen at my back. The sky was clear of cloud except for a little on the far horizons. A few chaffinches and sparrows formed silhouettes in the roadside trees and hedges. One or two distant gulls. 

Traffic was lighter than usual. The neighbour's dog was barking after yet another, freezing night outside. Unprotected against the chill while guarding against every sound which might just be the big bad world encroaching. Others need a dozen insecurity lights to protect themselves 24x367 against the bogeyman.

No ill effects but I had to remove my gloves and hat for the last leg. I was becoming too warm. That was about it for today's excursion. I had some more exercise in the garden later.

Friday 29th 28F, cold, overcast but dry. There is still white frost on the ground in the shadow of the house. No walk today but I have been busy outside getting lots of exercise.
