Sunday 4 October 2020, Day 14 of Level 1, Day 192 of Lockdown. 😷

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#Grateful for a wonderful day all round, the weather superb, my first Lockdown brunch, and my first dancing at La Parada Constantia Nek since the beginning of Lockdown; for the City of Cape Town coming to collect the broken glass this morning just as I went for a walk, happy that I could express my thanks to the staff personally; for fetching croissants from Maison J, having pre-ordered them; for feeling far safer in Camps Bay today, with 10 Law Enforcement Officers, two traffic police cars, and a Metro Police car proactively present in Camps Bay; for a wonderful Heritage Brunch at my home, lasting six hours, the second longest one ever; for the happiness of going back to La Parada Constantia Nek, seeing so many people from the pre-Lockdown dance nights there, yet it was so different, with minimal dance space, but the highlight was The Kiffness playing; for surviving a taxi overtaking me in a curve of the road and scraping my car on my way home, but not seeing any damage to my car (yet); and for being happy and healthy. 🙏💙 Continue reading →

#Grateful for a beautiful sunny day, with a hint of summer, at 20C; for having a second sleep this morning, with my Minsky 🐱 lying next to me; for a calm and peaceful day in all respects; for surviving a wine estate vehicle racing through the newly painted pedestrian crossing in Camps Bay; for surviving being in Sea Point; for meeting the lovely Mark Cromhout, whose photographs I so admire, and always chuffed when he likes one of mine on Instagram, thinking he is a professional photographer (@cromhout_views); for a lovely sunset; and for being happy and healthy. 🙏💙 Continue reading →
