Out And About.

[mongers]

Needless to say, I've canceled my visit to the Tank Museum (Tankfest is postponed at this point, anyways).

Damn, that's depressing. 

Maybe in the post virus wasteland, we can eventually have a ;anguish meet up?

I am still furious that before social distancing/stay at home last Monday the UK got battered by a new Atlantic storm every weekend - Ciara, Dennis, Jorge etc. Since social distancing, the weather has been made up of basically idyllic spring days we have to watch. Through our windows

Yeah it's highly annoying.

I'm limiting myself to one trip out a day and I'm combining that with food shopping. And I'm aiming to only got out late in the day.

Yesterday before the lock-down, travelled through the edge of the New Forest and it's surprising how much more confident the wildlife is getting, had to stop and turn around as I didn't want to disturb a big herd of fallow deer in the road.  And on the way back got 'waylaid' by 15 donkeys in one big group.

Even the rookeries seemed more vocal and confident flapping all over the place bringing back lots of twigs for the nests in the tree tops.

I love these long evenings when you can sit out all night in a beer garden or a park with some drinks

It's still pretty cold.

Sort of my favourite time of year - it's sunny so I can be outside, but still need knitwear

Surprisingly cold in the garden earlier, think it's about 8C here.

I thinks I should lock or even delete this thread, because most of us aren't likely to be going very far, any time soon.

Your obsession with tinkering with threads, their titles, poll choices, etc.  does border on the obsessive.  Just let it slide onto the second page and revive it when we get to the other side.

FYP.

s/b borders on the manic.

I took the trash out yesterday. That was a nice little walk in the sunshine, for all of 8 seconds.

But enough of your trash talk, Mal are you able to get to the sea easily?

I'm going to miss going to the coast.

I'm going for short walks. There's not much greenery around my district, especially since the federal gardens are closed (city managed parks are open, though). The general advice is to stay close to your home and avoid public transport unless absolutely necessary.

1/3 of sidewalks in Vienna is under 2 meters wide, so even just going around a few blocks means constant weaving, changing sides of the roads etc. to keep your distance from others.

So usually I just walk to the Rathaus where there's two small parks there, or to the Schönbornpark, which is also tiny and half of it locked off playgrounds and football/basketball cages.

I'd normally head to Volks- or Burggarten but as I mentioned they're shut at the moment.
