Today was the first day of lockdown – only allowed out for food/medicine shop, work (essential only) and exercise once a day.
Woke after a restless night and did 15 minutes of exercise with some new resistance bands. Really good low impact exercise, will keep this up. Then after a hearty breakfast, prepared ready to paint the cabin. The sun was out and warming up a treat, so much so I had to cover my neck after an hours painting. It took me longer than expected and didn’t finish until 13:30, second coat tomorrow.
Relaxed for the rest of the afternoon.
After dinner I went for my one exercise a day, I walked up to the ridgeway to see the sea – it was a lot further than I remember. Rewarded with a glorious sunset and a walk back in the dark.

Total number of COVID-19 associated UK deaths today: 149
