So, what’s been happening? Well like most people I guess things have been fairly restricted, but as ever we’ve been busy making the most of opportunities available. I’ve bought, dismantled and reassembled a second-hand greenhouse. I operated a record length taxi service to bring Grandad out of solitude to stay at Easter (this probably aided the sad departure of our beloved old Volvo – the first family car – which formed part of many a happy memory). And, despite Spring being slow to arrive, the last few weeks have definitely been all about rediscovering the Great Outdoors.
We’ve new local finds like Fin Glen, the Campsie foothills and Gadloch. Tanya and the girls took a dip in Fin Glen – I wasn’t brave enough. We’ve been camping in Angus, had multiple farm trips including a trek with alpacas, and even been tree climbing like we’ve never done before! All good for the soul – opening up outside and poking our slightly lockdown weary heads back out into the world. No more home schooling and plans are forming for the next few months. But we’re trying to have a few Covid-keeps, things that we've learnt on the journey of the pandemic. So we're going to try going a little more gently and mindfully, and not getting ourselves so booked up! Let's see how long it lasts...
