5th November 2020. 235 days in lockdown/isolation.

1st day of LOCKDOWN Part 2.

It’s now 253:214 to Biden. Not much change overnight and we have learned that Americans cannot count at night. But we can count on them to be imbeciles. And they seem worse the more money they have. I have always defended the American people as being nice and friendly and having been there four times felt I knew enough about them to comment and loved going there. Now I would feel unsafe and would never set foot in the place again. So much for the “special relationship”.

Fireworks/Bonfire Night. WHY??? A firework is made from explosives. They are dangerous and noisy and should be banned. There are no organised displays this year. So what? Live with it and save money.

It’s how I imagine it to have been in the Great War stuck in a trench. The fireworks they are using around us sound like howitzers. Pets in the vicinity must be going berserk.

Spoke to our good friends Bill an Irene today. They are in the Scottish Tier 3 (out of 4) which seems to equate to our Tier 3. Either way, there is no chance of meeting up. They are both fit and well but like us, are bored.

Went to get some succulents for potting, from our friend Paul and then visited the local garden centre to stock up with fresh fruit and vegetables. A tad more expensive but much better quality than Aldi and totally fresh.

Supporters in Michigan chant “”Stop the count”, and

Supporters in Arizona chant “Count the votes”.

Both sets of chanters were Trump supporters. It says it all!!

I read on Twitter that Nigel Farage had a bet on Trump to win. What a shame!! (If it is true).

Poor grammar continues on the BBC News. “The Lockdown will effect small directors of companies”, “The Lockdown will affect directors of small companies” surely. Watch out all you little directors! And don’t even mention less v fewer.
