We're off socialising again

We had a phone call yesterday and now our niece has arrived. She is on her way home from working south of us. We’re off to see a film from the international film festival then going to have dinner with my sister-in-law who has a birthday today. The three of us will stay the night there and return here tomorrow morning. Then, tomorrow afternoon, we’ll travel to Perth to attend a 70th birthday luncheon in honour of a good friend of ours. We’ve written some fun lyrics to the tune of Beautiful Dreamer. Everyone will be encouraged to join in singing this at some stage. The lunch is on Monday and we’ll stay with friends and return on Tuesday morning. So posts from me might be a bit sparse for the next few days. The photo is of a sundew - an Australian native plant.

At first glance the photo is very similar to the Corona virus. You are very observant.

@JudyEv It is a pretty plant, but everything round with something looking like spikes reminds the Covid.

Someone else said that about the photo looking like COVID. Such a shame as it's a pretty little plant.

@JudyEv we had some religious festivities here in the Philippines, each one can turn out to be possible super-spreader events for CoViD-19.

@allen0187 That's so true. But because we have no cases, we are hopeful that we won't catch the disease. As soon as one person tests positive, there will be immediate measures brought into play to try to stop the spread.

It is good to be active socially. We did attend a marriage event and occasionally go to Malls. But unlike other folks, we are not being adventurous and try to go out only when needed.
