Corona Gratitude \ud83d\ude4f<\/u><\/p>\n

#Grateful for a lovely warm sunny day; for getting so used to our Exercise Time, that 14C at 7h30 feels warm enough for a sleeveless exercise top, and for being so energized and warm when I return home that I can sit down and work immediately; for bumping into Haakon and Thomas again, and walking with them on my way back home, a lovely (unplanned) way to meet up with friends; to stumble across the Surfer Protest at Glen Beach, without knowing initially what it was all about, until I read that it happened at a number of beaches, with police action in Sea Point and Muizenberg but none here; with litter along the way to pick up, still balking at removing the dog poo along the way; for the lovely pics I can take at this early start to the day; for my fabulous friend Llewellyn Lambert who helped to reduce the content of my Blog as it was exceeding the capacity of my web host, and fixing a few other Blog design issues – such a good friend that he has all my passwords, and it is he who umhacked my Social Media Accounts almost a year ago; \ud83c\udf4e\ud83c\udf4e\ud83c\udf4e\ud83c\udf4e for Auto & General repaying the R690 for 5 years of taking money for an unrequested policy covering me against getting HIV in the case of a car accident \ud83d\ude31; for a lovely chat with Nicolette Waterford about our Lockdown experiences; for meeting a lovely couple walking past my home, both having worked at The Village Idiot, and Luke having worked with my nephew Nick Solomon at North Island in the Seychelles, what a small world ; for getting 200 points by fluke from Discovery today; for dancing to Kfm this afternoon \ud83d\udc83; and for being happy and healthy. \ud83d\ude4f\ud83d\udc99<\/p>\n

This morning I wrote a good-news story about the local music industry, and how much airtime it is getting on local tadio stations now, Kfm in particular, a campaign created by Martin Myers at the beginning of Lockdown.<\/p>\n

South African Music industry flourishes during Corona Virus Lockdown, makes history on Kfm!<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
