It’s the 17th of May, and a few more restrictions have been removed for people living in England. This is good news. I’m beginning to get out and explore a little further. Heading to the famous Roman Baths in Bath tomorrow for a spot of history and can’t wait. I’m cautiously optimistic about the further opening up of the country. However, I am aware of the situation of the rapid spread of this new Indian variant of the virus, especially in the Northwest of England, and plan to be careful when out and about. I will continue to wear my mask in indoor public places and keep my distance from other people where possible. Although, this is often difficult for us blind people! :). I’m planning to fly to Greece at the beginning of June to see and hug my beloved, who I’ve not seen since February 2020! This is far too long to be apart! I’m very excited about travelling again. Travelling is my life, and life is for living :). Have a great day and week, be careful, stay safe and have fun where you can. Cheers, Tony :).
PS, I realise not everyone in the UK is as fortunate as me to be able to go out and do things again. Many people are still shielding and many others haven’t had a vaccine, for whatever reason. These people should not be judged or slandered for not having a vaccine, they may have personal, health or religious or cultural reasons for not having one. They might simply be scared to have a vaccine, especially with all the scaremongering that is about on social media.
