It's a 10 minute walk which is good but there is always a queue. I wonder if that will be reduced now that it's 'freedom day'.

That's not too bad
Hopefully there won't be a queue!

Ugh. Freedom day. I do not agree with it

Yes scary times. I hope and pray this doesn't lead to a fourth lockdown.

That would be awful
But it probably will. Unless BoJo just decides to plough on regardless which wouldn't surprise me

Honestly wouldn't surprise me if we just have push through from now on... but it's Boris' so who the **** knows??

In Wales we still have to wear a mask except in pubs and restaurants. All other indoor settings such as shops, hospitals and public transport you have to. Even if you're going to England to Wales or start in Wales but going to England.

Boris could do one of his miraculous U turns

That's from August 7th as it's still a requirement to wear one now in all situations.

Well, I'm off out to face the heat. wish me luck...

Good luck!

It's not really the wearing of masks that's the issue, Dawn. Other than the self isolation rules we pretty much have no guidance to follow. Everything is reopening and it's down to businesses to decide on capacities and face masks and stuff. And a this despite cases and deaths going up. Masks not being compulsory any more is only a small part of that.

And good luck, Luna!

There seems to be a small breeze and some cloud coming over now.

Thank you. Luckily I got in the queue when it was still in the air conditioned post office rather than standing outside - always a win.

Back home with my army of fans lol

That's good Luna! Well done!

I've just booked a ticket to see the croods 2 on Thursday (to avoid my letting agent who is doing a house inspection)

Ah nice, that sounds like a nice little trip out. I miss the cinema. You gonna get popcorn?

Yep! I've missed it too.
And yes I will be getting popcorn! :-D

Yaay, can't beat cinema popcorn. Yum!

There is no popcorn like cinema popcorn!

Sweet or salty though?

Sweet!

It has to be. =)

Tesco's finest popcorn is pretty good. I got a mango and chilli (I think?) one from there once. So sweet!

Oooh that sounds interesting!

I don't think they do it any more. It was mango and Chilli with coconut bits.

That sounds yummy!

It really really was! So sweet, the chilli level was just right. Easily ate the entire bag in one go =P

Well how else do you eat popcorn?! :tongue2:

Exactly! But they still like to put a portion size on the bag, like 12 servings or something.

It's ridiculous really
They KNOW we're going to eat the entire thing so why mess about with portion sizes?!
It's like on chocolate bars and they say 1 serving = 3 pieces. Please!

I hate it when they say something is share size. I ain't sharing my chocolate with nobody.

Exactly Dawn!

Amen to that Dawn!!

Morning everyone!
Another hot one today. Ugh!

Morning Beckie, it sure is!
What are your plans today? is it today you're off to the cinema?

My only plans were asda and post my brother's birthday cards and I've done that!
No that's Thursday.

What are you up to today Luna?

Not much. Trying to work through the things I didn't do yesterday but the heat is making me feel very unmotivated.

The heat is awful!
All you can really do in this heat is collapse in front of a fan!

Maxi dress day again.

Good plan tamo!

My phone is warning of thunderstorms.
I really hope we get one!

Definitely going to see how productive I can be on the sofa lying in front of the fan haha

Fingers crossed for some angry clouds

Haha! Don't blame you!

Yess definitely need some angry clouds.
The air needs to clear!

My brain is glitching today. Cannot focus at all.
How are you guys getting on?

That sucks
I hope you're taking lots of breaks!.

I'm just applying for more jobs
Though I'm running out of options!

Urgh job application take so long to fill out. What sort of things are you applying for?

They really do!
I'm applying for everything! Apart from care jobs because criminal record.
So mainly shops and restaurants.
I really really want to work!

I have had my tesco shopping order. One 1 substitution which was acceptable. Took me an hour to put everything away because of the heat.

Tesco didn't have my ice cream yesterday.
I was displeased

Did they substitute it Beckie? They had mine.

Nope!

Oh that sucks. You definitely need ice cream in this weather.
