General observations

There is no traffic beyond the occasional distant tractor.
I can hear a small sparrows wings beating as it flies toward me from behind.
The sky the last couple of nights has had a super bright planet shining in it to a degree I have never before seen in in all my life and I'm in my late 60's.
I think it's Jupiter but never before like this .....

The tradies are still driving along our street during the day working, the paramedics are still hitting the sirens going through the intersections / lights.

There are mostly light planes flying over an area I look at with Flight Radar 24, a few domestic flight s coming in to Bundaberg, a few cargo plane around. The RFDS are pretty busy as are the rescue choppers. Some international flights still coming into Brisbane.

I was at one of the shopping centres yesterday getting some money out, and it was pretty dead up the food court end with most of the shops shut.

It's peaceful in the early mornings. Thanks to insomnia, I heard the birds tweeting a very tuneful morning chorus.

Seven weeks on furlough!
And I live on a main road, (always have)

First weeks,
No traffic, thought I was deaf!
No people walking past, forgetting my people skills in communication!
Nothing in shops, no fast food, no footie, no sport on tv, no good news, having to stay at home with the other half, no rest doing chores, no hols, no travel, no grandkids to play with.
Dawn chorus outside waking me up at 5am every morning!
And the government being totally inept!

The only good thing was I could actually breathe cos of no traffic pollution and the weather was decent.




Now! Too much traffic, too many people about, too much time on my hands, dawn chorus blocked by traffic noise, no work, no deliveries of food, having to queue, bored! Still no family around, still no footie, no sport, television shockingly bad, no good news, too many deaths!

And the government has really reached a new level of ineptitude with their latest lockdown rules!

I'm totally confused, I hate this time. Thank you for our NHS!
