19 April 2020 — OUT OF BAD GOOD HAPPENS

Since the enforcement of lockdown I have discovered what a friendly neighbourhood I live in. As people are approaching we smile from a distance and shout the odd remark to each other. Very often I find that I and the other person are both waiting for each other to pass, or, we both tend to start to pass each other at the recommended two metre distance on the same side and laugh about it. Consequently, instead of feeling that it is a bit of an imposition (if a necessary one) I have started to welcome it as it is inducing a ‘feel good’ feeling.
