It was a pretty sombre Friday with lots of flags at half mast for the American fire fighters who lost their lives. With a case of the Coronavirus confirmed no one is joking much about pestilence anymore and the price of fruit and vegetables is sky rocketing to warn us all that not much fun is ahead. I was talking with my S African friend today and we were saying it was the first time in a long time when we had felt like we might need to exercise our options of living in another country.
In less grim news (or maybe a different kind of grim) we went to see Bombshell. Charlize Theron is stand out but there was not a lot to feel enthused by when all the structural elements are still at play in the organisations we work in and the communities we live in.
I need to read something a bit light hearted to lift this mood.
I put all these pictures up the other night but they are all too high so I am putting this here as a visual reminder to get my arse into gear.
.....and of course the locusts in Kenya.
Good to see the pictures up but agree they would be better at eye level.
