Lockdown day #73

What a beautiful day - only wish I had been near the sea, or in the hills, but of course I was stuck in my little corner of the world instead.  Of course, once the lockdown is finally over we shall have a fortnight of rain!

I walked 3km, over very familiar territory, and spent some time on my balcony overlooking an industrial estate.  I did some more historical research and watched a very silly film.

The film, called "Don't Take It to Heart" tells the story of the Earls of Chaunduyt (pronounced "Condit") who have the surname Bucket (pronounced  "bouquet").  I wonder if the producers of "Keeping Up Appearances" had also seen this time, and got the idea from that.  Anyway, it was frivolous nonsense, and perfect for a summer evening.

Later in the evening I watched another classic war film "Night Train to Munich" and downloaded The Australasian Journal of Salvation Army History for March 2019.
