. Its been an good period without anything rocking the boat so to speak.
Now as the "full" easing of restrictions is coming to an end (and with England in a major cup final for the first time in my life to boot) things are looking much better. It really does feel like the end of the pandemic.
I know this doesn't mean things go back to the old normal. But it does feel like we can move forward without so much worry or fear as we have had for 18 months. This is a good thing for us all.
I can see the Covid figures climbing (thankfully not so much the hospitalisations or deaths) which is still a worry. And the government really need to get a grip on when people should isolate (one of my daughters has had her school holidays beginning early, the other is worried she is going to miss out on an end of year trip).
