Day 27 — Sunday 19 April 2020

Oh, I’m very late with my journal updates, but I’m sure you wouldn’t have noticed!

So I am writing this on Thursday 23 April, 2020 and now I have to remember what happened last Sunday!

Well, from what I can remember, ‘Pip the Dog’ and I had a quiet walk, not that many dog walkers out and about, I guess it’s because it was a Sunday!

As is normal on a Sunday and in fact every day, we have our super healthy fruit and soaked oats breakfast and then watch the Andrew Marr show. Andrew Marr is essentially a reporter who has is own show on BBC One every Sunday morning from 9am until 10.15am, it has got 15 minutes longer in recent months. He usually reviews the papers, speaks to a few other reporters and then in the main has politicians on his show. To be honest I have no idea why I watch it, because I think that most politicians are total morons, especially the Conservative Government in the UK, well in fact most of Conservatives have no clue about regular life.

Once we finish watching that, we’re still in the kitchen by the way, we watch something on Channel 4, called Sunday Brunch, one of these magazine shows with a couple of presenters, Simon (the chef) and Tim (nice but dim), who have a series of guest articles on. They talk and they cook and they cook and they talk. Pretty mind numbing to be fair. However due to current circumstances, they have to transmit from their homes and fill in the gaps with some clips from past shows. I do believe TV production teams are having to be very creative in so many different ways at the moment and I applaud them, the production teams that is, not the presenters they are still fairly useless!

Then later on Clair used up some Bananas that were going over to make a delicious home made Banana Loaf (Cake). Yum!

Watched some telly in the evening, walked ‘Pip the Dog’ in the evening and that was it!
