It's all getting a bit silly now!
Glastonbury, the Edinburgh Festival, Stonehenge, all the major museums and galleries, National Trust properties, West End theatres, Royal Opera House, Royal Albert Hall, the Southbank, the Barbican, nightclubs, cinemas, Selfridges, EastEnders - and the "Gay World Cup" (Eurovision)! All closed. And, as of today I'm working from home (which is a first for me)...
...I think we need a little light relief!
Let our minds drift into the exotic world of Soft Tempo Lounge with, in their words: "a little something to make those isolated days blissfully drift by..."
Almost 50 minutes of bliss, indeed:

DeleteThe life of a shut-in, Day 3.
ReplyDeleteThis is only day one. By day three, I imagine I'll be craving sherry for breakfast. By week three, I'll probably be on the methylated spirit... Jx
DeleteAt last! I'll have time to watch all the films and shows on my Netflix list!! Oh, and wash Car and get on with some gardening, all to this delightful soundtrack - thank you, Jon x
ReplyDeleteI'm having to "work". However the murk has descended again, so gardening wouldn't be a lot of fun anyway at the moment. Jx
DeleteOh dear that music. Fly ME away now, too!
ReplyDeleteYou love it, really... Jx
DeleteEASTENDERS - I am horrified. BUT, I can watch the old episodes on the Drama Channel.
ReplyDeleteYou're an extrovert, aren't you? Us introverts will do our best to help you.

As a confirmed introvert who enjoys a lot of "me time," I'm with Miss Scarlet on this one.
DeleteExtrovert, introvert, whatever - I can't stand the feeling of being told to do/not to do something that is alien to me. I may have always railed against the sterility of the office, but working from home is no fun either. Jx
DeleteI'm actually looking forward to there being more repeats on the telly now there's no sport or soaps :-)
DeleteJx
Oh dear the video isn't working
ReplyDeleteIt was... I'll need to have a root around to see if it's us or them. Jx
