Stress Shopping

Coronavirus anxiety inducing shopping experience

When we walked into the shop it seemed fine. The aisles are tight but it was almost empty. A few more people walked in behind us. By the time we were going to pay there were too many people to keep 2 metres apart. Then a kid came in, bouncing around the place, jumped in front of me in the queue. Waaaay too close. Trying to get coins changed into a 20 note. He harassed the man behind the counter and the manager. He didn’t have enough money to make the note and was trying to pull a fast one.

And ordinarily none of this would have bothered me and I would have laughed at the shamelessness. But because he wouldn’t stay back, or be still, and because the shop was too full, it was anxiety inducing. And I felt silly because nothing really happened, but also, stressed. And I will try and avoid that shop until this is over.

Off the Richmond Road. I have driven past it countless times but wasn't aware it existed until a lockdown exploring walk.

Adding some cute visual interest to this otherwise plain garden. 3/5 stars.

Facade

Church front done in classical Greek style. Architecturally fits in well with surrounding buildings. Said no one ever.

Door Boy

Addition to brickwork at the top of the arch over a door. When photo was taken, all windows in the building were blocked with heavy fabric. It looked weird. Cute boy!
