Lockdown day #75

Another nice sunny day - temperature up to 24 degrees - I had to put sun block on for the first time this year as my legs were cooking nicely.

Today should have been "A Night at the Musicals" at Rochdale Citadel - I gave my apologies since I was going to the "Chairman's Charity Dance" at St Matthews Church Hall in Stretford - both were cancelled due to COVID-19.

The reason for the Charity Dance was because our Chairman is 65 today!  Instead I visited him and had a nice socially distanced natter with some food in his garden (it was where my legs were cooking) ... so the day wasn't totally wasted.

I did some shopping at Asda - as is my wont on a Saturday (to get the meat for Sunday lunch), and didn't have to queue long - Asda actually felt quite empty.  Perhaps people were sitting in their gardens rather than shopping.

When I got home I did some work on a book, and then watched a film called "The Last Year" - telling the tale of Christian [lack of] love at a Bible college in America.  Some of the behaviour of the Dean and his misquoting of the Bible were scandalous - why so many Christians believe in a God of punishment I do not believe .... I believe in a God of love.    The film, however, had a lovely ending.
