saying Hi.



Hi all we are still in lockdown and hopefully like me your managing to cope with it
I being in a motorhome by myself does bring its little problems like nobody to talk to for the best part of a full week sure I have the internet and Zoom etc but nothing beats a face to face conversation at the end of the day.
I have been self-isolating in the same layby now for 32 days and have only travelled  28 miles that's 4 journeys to the shops.
Being in the open brings its pleasures like all the wildlife so many different types of birds in this area and a lot of them are in the small woods that are to one side of me. Ideal for me sat in the van with my binoculars
On the other side is open countryside stretching over to brown willy on Bodmin moor and well beyond in most directions along with my map and compass I can find most other places as well as the crow flys brown willy is about 35 miles from my park up.
The internet is a godsend in times like these and my interest and learning curve in all sorts of things has improved on end however my English and spelling is still atrous you should have seen this before I used Grammarly never mind were not all born to be clever sods are we.
I also watch a bit more TV now mostly in the evening being mindful of my battery usage when the suns out not a problem at all it does charge on daylight as opposed to sunlight so I have a good genny which I use every other two days and boost the battery power if there is something on in the day time I will run the Van of the genny so saving my battery power for the evening time.
My spending in the supermarket has also gone right down I don't and never did panic-buy I do eat quite well buying and eating more fresh veg than anything else and keeping cans of processed food in for emergency along with doing a bit of baking things like beer bread, sourdough, potato cakes, fish cakes, oatcakes doing most of these in my skillet pan need to get a dutch oven now.
