Tuesday 13 July 2021, Day 16 of Level 4 😷
Corona Gratitude 🙏
#grateful for the sun being back, nice in the sun but very chilly at 14C max today; for a blue Monday and Friday the 13th all rolled into one, but with some highlight silver linings; for a lovely client meeting, planning ahead for the restaurant reopening later this month; for the lovely Drambuie miniature which Gary Peterson gifted me last week, washing the troubles of the day away; for a lunchtime walk through Bakoven and a late afternoon one in our garage to meet my step goal; and for being happy, healthy, and free.

I’ve been thinking about how I can give to the restaurant industry, other than my physical input. Yesterday it struck me: creating a new Facebook page listing all the restaurants which will open on Friday 1 May to offer a Take-Away Food Delivery Service, as per Level 4 regulations. The page is called ‘Take Away Food Deliveries Level 4 Cape Town and Winelands’, but I’ve already added the Garden Route, the Overberg, and West Coast too. We already have close to 500 members, who signed up yesterday afternoon.
The Sweet Service Award goes to Woolworths, for opening a long-awaited branch of its FOOD store in Camps Bay yesterday. The retailer handed out rusks at the traffic light, to attract attention to the store opening, and offered early bird shoppers R50 discount vouchers. The Manager of the store Lee Worship and the Foods Manager Gary Arendse were friendly in welcoming us to their new store. We as Camps Bat residents are delighted to have the store in walking distance.
