Lockdown continues in Wales far stricter than England but at least we are now allowed to go out for exercise as much as we want. I am making the most of getting out and yesterday took my camera out for the first time in ages!

There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment.
We are making photographs to understand what our lives mean to us.
The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.
The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.
I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn’t photograph them.

I haven't been anywhere dressed for a while, mainly due to lockdown, but I have had the odd times when I've been experimenting with different foundation, powders etc.at home, for when I do eventually venture out again. I was trying out the "baking" technique under my eyes here with concealer, beauty blender and loose powder that is all the rage at the moment and followed a youtube tutorial. I'm not sure if its worth all the bother to be honest, I should probably just get some tear trough filler and botox, there is only so much makeup can do! It's my own hair here, plus a few clip in hair extensions for added volume
As of Tuesday 29 June at 6.00pm, South East Queensland and also the Townsville and Magnetic Island regions of North Queensland have entered an initial three day snap lockdown as the state battles to get under control four different COVID clusters, one of which is of the more transmissible Delta variant. There are also current lockdowns in place for a large breakout around Sydney and also in Perth and Darwin. Given the challenges Melbourne has faced during the pandemic with a number of lengthy lockdowns, they are free of cases at the moment and we hope it will remain that way.
Last week, things looked pretty normal downstream of the Victoria Bridge in central Brisbane where lots of cranes signal some ambitious developments along the Brisbane River.
The Victoria Bridge itself has now gone car less as it is readied for the new Metro bus network and more pedestrians. Looking downstream, the cranes on the left are the major Queens Wharf casino, hotel and entertainment complex which is being built on the site of former government offices. Many of these including the state government executive are now housed in the large building just beyond, despite the sign on the top for a large superannuation (retirement savings) company. Brisbane's Central Business District is out of shot on the left.
There are more cranes on the right hand side beside Southbank Parklands and these are on barges in the river and involved in a new pedestrian bridge that will link Queen's Wharf with Southbank. The bridge will be named after Neville Bonner (1922-1999) who was the first Australian aboriginal person to become a Federal parliamentarian. In the distance, the new underground Cross River rail line will pass well below the water.
New pedestrian bridges are very popular in Brisbane right now with two more "green bridges" as they like to call them planned for Kangaroo Point to the City and another down near Newstead.
Coronor-virus has altered a lot of our daily lives. Before "lock-down" having the time to stop for a "proper breakfast" was rare.
Now it has become a pleasant weekly distraction among our small group ("bubble") of older reprobates.
We get to discuss the world and it's problems in a totally irreverent and "non politically correct" way amongst friends that we have known for almost 40 years.
I think next week we should add beer to the menu.
In many parts of the world, booze at breakfast is seen as a perfectly normal way to start the day.
Beer or ale for breakfast is not uncommon in parts of northern Europe, particularly in Belgium – and even, until as late as the 1980s, in England, where breweries would give free drinks to their workers. While this was probably to counter pilfering, it also continued a long tradition of brewers enjoying a hearty brew to start the day, harking back to the “liquid bread” of 16th-century friars. It would seem there is more to an early-morning pint than just hair of the dog.
I don't think any of this matches up with the governments anti-obesity plan.
