Covid restriction, Football and relaxing in self-isolating

in WORLD OF XPILAR3 years ago

Hello dear Steemians,

 

Another report from the Self-isolation camp within our house and garden. It is one week past and we will have another 6 days till we have freedom to move.

Actually we are feeling ourselves very well, last couple of days, we have cut back the bushes and even removed a tree in back garden, planted another ever-green tree instead. Build up a little feeding place for squirrels by the way we have couple of squirrels and at least one hare, who is on and off visiting our garden.

COVID restrictions in UK

 

In meantime, yesterday it was announcement by British Government about latests changes in COVID restrictions that they would like to implement from 19/07 and it is a screenshot from BBC news: https://www.bbc.com/news/explainers-52530518

I am a bit concerned if that is good idea, especially with the number of cases that UK has.

Saying that:

Face covering "recommended" in crowded public spaces is enough for many people to consider that as it is not obligatory and people will not do that.

I am very excited to see what will happen a week after those rules.

Also on Sunday we were watching the Final Football Game between England and Italy. We were for Italy one of the reason was the way how the English Fans treated Danish team, fans:

We were glad that Italien Team won, they have deserved it. All three England players missed penalties in the 3-2 shootout loss to Italy in final. But what happened following day was not really a surprise, I have forecast that it would happen once the game was over and it came true. They were targeted with racial abuse on social media after the game.

What kind of world we are living in?

 

A lot happening around. In meantime I would like to go to something nice, this is a photo that was done in our garden and this is reality that we are enjoying.

Very nice photos, I loved the squirrel too much. I hope these restrictions help to stop the virus because it is difficult because people usually need their spaces to be in contact with others, the healthiest thing for the mind is to be surrounded by loved ones

Thank you Irene, agree we only can help to prevent with all possible measurements and that should be not be done too early, otherwise we will fall back.

We will try to make more pictures of our little guest :)

Иногда очень полезно прятаться от внешнего мира в собственном саду! Он у вас замечательный! И то, что его облюбовали белки - это так здорово!

Да, я помню в прошлом даже без ограничений мы проводили дни не покидая наш дом, поэтому это не так плохо. Будем надеятся что погода улучшится для гриля, последние два дня время от времени идет дождь :)

Hi @Stef1
Sir as I discussed with you earlier about Mini Workshop on Steem.
I got a chance to make a work shop with papi.mati in his steemitweekly newspaper contest and my entry was selected to publish in Steemitweekly newspaper.
( Contest -Origami workshop).
This is the link:-

Sir but iam not getting how to take it further to get people on board for workshops. Can you suggest me how to do it.

The garden is looking great. Thats always the upside of these type of things is that it can give you some unexpected time to get things done. I could do with some of that myself.

Right, otherwise there are always excuses not to do such work. Although I must say summer and garden work is always enjoyable especially when after that we can have nice grill :)

One of the things I like the most is to look at the pictures you post here in steemit, and your post is one of them, excellent pictures, quite simple but full of beauty.
