Monday 8 March 2021, Day 8 of Level 1, Day 348 of Lockdown 😷

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#Grateful for a cool 19C day; for a busy working and writing day; for an energetic walk through Bakoven and up all the lanes and steps up to Camps Bay Drive, getting a good cardio workout and 300 Discovery points, a walk I loved doing with Imtiaz; for not having DSTV to see the Harry/Meghan broadcast, having heard the essence of it on all the news broadcasts on FaceBook during the day; and for being happy and healthy. 🙏💙

My Blogpost today was about Restaurant Week, a month long good value Restaurant extravaganza starting on 1 April.

Autumn Restaurant Week becomes a month-long April food festival at affordable prices!

I was awake just before 2h00, but couldn’t get to see THE INTERVIEW, as it could only be seen in the USA at that time.

There is a bad litter patch in Bakoven, and I met a resident there by chance, and we laughed when she called herself the Bakoven Bitch (BB). I replied that I must be the BBB (Bali Bay Bitch.) 😂

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.
