The Prepping Thread - A Newer Beginning ;)

I actually slept through last night, almost forgotten now as there's usually a time every night I wake for a few hours and can't get back off, I had the thought this morning 'Do I remember what it feels like not to be stressed? and no I don't.  I'm not fearful, that's not the feeling at all but stress and not being in control of life is uncomfortable, the uncertainty and repetitive days are draining and I'm living day to day not looking forwards because of this.  The biggest pleasure I can think of at this moment in time would be to wake up in the morning one day and know I can go anywhere I want and do anything I want to do with family and friends and feeling freedom again. It's been a long old haul hasn't it? way to go yet but I guess we're closer with vaccines, I wonder how long before my 'day' happens?

Well Polly it seems DT can be ours for £40 on the Bay or Amazoon. In a kilt though. I am dubious about hairy knees...

Oh I don't know, there's something about a man in a kilt, and if that man is DT, well....

Have volunteered as an NHS steward to help marshall the vaccination centres.  It kind of feels like the least i can do to help get things rolled out more quickly.

I've gone into full Roman mode. Somebody gave me a book about the Roman army and I'm now looking round for more Romans to keep me going through lockdown.

If it's actual historical detail (rather than fiction) you're after, then try Mary Beard's SPQR.

I love real detail, real history. Will go and look for her books now, TY WL!  I'll remember this lockdown as the year we nearly went bankrupt because of my addiction. Books on amazon.

Flooding on the way for England this week.

Remember, Madarthur, you're no longer safe halfway up a mountain so we could easily return the favour within some excess water of our own....
