Not a fan of Pink by any means but her donation seems to be heartfelt. Looking after the community that looked after her. Nice touch. Yes Ruby, I have noticed it as well. Morning birdsong seems much brighter and there are sounds I have never heard before. Amazing how birds can all be making hundreds of calls and sounds all 'out of tune' etc. but it all sounds complete. When a human being does the same thing with two discordant notes it sounds hideous. There's some sort of lesson in that but for the life of me I can't figure it out. Years ago I was in Montpellier, France. I was staying on a farm some distance from the city. I used to go sit and read under a massive tree they had near the main house. The sound of the wind in the trees is the single most satisfying and relaxing sound I have ever heard to date. Used to fall asleep in the chair - of course the vino contributed to that as well! Magical time. No music, no people - just the wind in the trees. As the band 'Talk Talk' said. Happiness Is Easy.
Just looking at a post further up the thread - it won't take 30 years for nature to reclaim the land. It will take far less time.
Another thing - I certainly don't miss the lack of sports coverage at all. As I have got older sport has become less and less important. Unfortunately television stations seemed to be hellbent on replacing those slots with endless cooking programs run by people who don't know how to cook at all. Jeez, I can cook better and that's not saying much. And I don't miss going to the pub either. In fact I stopped going long before C-19 kicked in anyway. Those days are in the past. Must admit I am itching to travel someplace - anywhere really. Cabin fever has set in big time. Need a different landscape to look at.
