Tuesday 15 June 2021, Day 16 of Adjusted level 2 😷

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#grateful for a day that started off badly turning out to be so fabulous; for a busy work morning preparing for a client meeting; for having time to do Bakoven walk; for collecting my bed linen at the laundry; for seeing Zest Restaurant set up beautifully for the first time, with furniture, glasses, and cutlery; for an excellent status meeting of newkings boutique hotel and Zest restaurant, receiving compliments from both my clients for the awareness created in just two weeks since starting on the two accounts; for a Woolies shop in the Piazza da Luz; for getting the day off tomorrow by one of my clients 🙏; for a lovely releasing walk with Vivian Warby, our timing perfect; for a beautiful sunset tonight; for no Loadshedding for the past few days; for being ready for our Family Meeting at 20h00, not sounding too bad as far as rumours go, just until Sunday; and for being happy, healthy, and free. 🙏💙

My Blogpost was a Preview of Chef Matt Schreuder’s new Homespun Restaurant at The Andros Boutique Hotel in Claremont, officially opening on Friday.

The dreadful noisy renters arrived back in Curfew at 1h30 this morning, with 8 or more persons and four cars, making a huge noise, so I had to call the Camps Bay CSI security, who threatened to have the renters arrested for partying during Curfew and for not being in their home. It took another hour for them to settle down. Thank goodness they left later this morning. The pathetic Ebbtide 201 owner Sacha Jack wrote back to all my complaint emails this morning for the first time, after four nights of disturbance, saying she had asked them a number of times to keep quiet 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

New clients have moved in there, and I gave them a lecture before they can even think of making a noise!

PS Level 3 Lockdown from midnight:

President Ramaphosa moves SA to Alert Level 3, Curfew starts at 22h00!

SA Corona Status: 1 761 066 cases 58087 deaths 1 871 987 vaccinations

The Corona Virus Lockdown (Level 5), announced by our President Cyril Ramaphosa earlier to commence on 27 March and to continue until 16 April, subsequently extended to 30 April, lowered to Level 4 from 1 May, lowered to Level 3 from 1 June, lowered to Level 2 from 18 August, lowered to Level 1 from 21 September, and moved back to Adjusted Level 3 from 29 December,  extended to 15 February on 11 January, extended but relaxed on 1 February, and relaxed back to Level 1 on 1 March 2021, is an unprecedented event in my lifetime. I am posting my daily Facebook post to journal this Corona Lockdown Journey, perhaps to serve as material for a future Book.
