Very pretty poem, and I love the accompanying picture of the sunset. I use to live where there was no obstruction of the setting sun over the desert. It was so beautiful.

Nothing beats a spectacular sunset Jan, saw a few setting over the sea whilst I was away, I never get tired of seeing them. Good luck. Tom

Folk here HAVE to isolate for between 8 and 14 days - if they pay £50 for a covid test on day 7 they could potentially get out of isolation early if its negative. We have had 4 cases since lock down eased all from people who have travelled and also a handful of people in prison for not obiding by the isolation rules:-( hugs jan xx

Had a great time but didn't see much social distancing on the plane although we had to wear masks except when you were eating and drinking, bit of a joke really. We had to fill out a form before coming back in case anyone had it on the plane but no need to self isolate on our return unless we get a phone call. Your right, it changes by the minute, Boris hasn't a clue. I think we're in for a long dark winter.

we have the most glorious sunset today unfortunately i didn't have my camera with me, will make sure I do tomorrow just in case its as good. Hope you had a glorious holiday - are you in isolation now - i don't know what is happening in the Uk it changes every five minutes:-( hugs Jan xx
