Trigun!

They will be no doubt plenty of spooky stuff happening this weekend with it being Halloween and that.

We'll have some candy in small bags for local children who do dress up to take with them to make it as safe as possible

Meanwhile it's been raining for much of this week up on the dvd/blu ray player today and probably for next week and a half is this Trigun which a former best friend raved over so I thought I'd a get a copy.

 
In essence Set in the distant future on a desert planet, the anime follows Vash The Stampede who has a $60,000,000,000 reward on his head for destroying numerous towns, although he is yet to end a human life. 

 I like it a lot

Fall 2020

 Well upwards and onwards, what?

Fall is all around at the moment if you haven't noticed so I've also been finding my scarves and gloves as it gets colder for going out on foot enjoying the countryside and seeing the odd person about too apart from his nutkins plus his mate who was spotted this week. 

For instance this scene is most probably seen by a number of people in this district but probably ignored just for being on the roadside near the estate in its full colour and if hadn't of been for the telegraph pole learning as most things here do you would of mistaken for being taken in a wood.

That's the thing. Great enjoyable scenes that can help refresh us in these trying times need not be far  away from us if we keep our eyes peeled wide open.

 

Preparations

I wouldn't blame her for being sat there, reading a book at the moment  because I've a number of my old books and comic annuals out and ready for whatever may transpire in the next few weeks cos I believe in being prepared.

I also like old fashioned simple wooden chairs like that too not least cos they do private more support and help with avoiding slouching which having a bad back doesn't help in the least when comes to things to sit in. 

Three piece suites just don't provide the sort of support I need really and the chairs on those are too wide and deep for me to feel that comfortable.

Tuned in ready for the updates

 

I can remember my grand parents house that had a simple bakelite radio of this era late 1940's early 50's still being used several decades on one one of my many periodic weekend and and off school vacations often being on a times when announcements were likely to be made.

For a period at our first home we did have a similar set too of the universal AC/DC design with some practices that would fall short of modern safety standards like having a potentially live chassis if the (two pin) plug was insert the wrong way around.

This next few ways we are likely to see some major announcements in England being made regarding the Covid health emergency with a simplifying of the rules to three bands and the probability of restaurant and pub closures in the most affected areas with money being made available for those forced to closed and the prohibiting of staying overnight in anywhere outside your own home.

All of this no doubt will be worked on up to the last minute and as things are here two school fifth forms are shut down and another is just coming out of the same which suggests we could be in for a bumpy ride locally if this shows in the overall transmission rate.

I tend not to spend a lot of time following news streams and the like, preferring to listen to the reports that just have the basic information.

Survival for littles

 

It's been a topsy-turvy old week as in some ways as I remarked to the hairdresser you have a strong sense of deja vu to invoke the current phrase it all seems to be going in the wrong direction and even at the top their appears to be some confusion.

I may be subject to additional measures in a few weeks time as two councils feel being on the edge of areas with issues they need to clamp down on excessive social contact here and while nothing has been said, one usual social gathering I would suspect is off.

Still, look at it this way I can remain my little self in my dresses and shorts, reading books, playing with my plushies and for now continue to go to the park and just ride this all out more as a child just doing what I'm told.

I need not think that deeply around any of this not least as the scientists seem all over the place so cuddling my pet rabbit and a goodnight kiss is a much more comforting and that is all that matters to get though a day.

It's a lot better for my head to stay out of adult spaces altogether until this is all over
