Covid Blog 46

Today was the coldest start to the day of the year with temperatures around 4 degrees and frost!

As a result I decided not to ride in the morning and leave it to the afternoon... a good choice as it turned out 

As a result I did a few chores around the house, paid a few bills, sorted out the printer and made a trip to see the progress on the new building project on the corner of Springfield and Springvale roads 

At midday I had a zoom call to get an update on the progress being made on the Covid lockdown at Alkira. All good there as the focus now is on how the organisation reverts to opening day service activities... we suspect that this will not simply be a reverse back to that which operated prior to Covid... the new norm needs a lot of work 

After a bite of lunch I went on a ride... the weather was sunny but cool and I enjoyed the bike paths for most of the ride. I am finding that using bike paths in the late afternoon more problematic as families emerge from home schooling 

The ride ended at about 3.30pm .... good timing!

After cleaning the bike I lit the fire and reflected on a good day of achievement 

I am sorry that the blog will be delayed in being posted.... seems that a clown in a building site in Box Hill mistakenly dug up the NBN and Telstra cable’s cutting off all internet communication in the vicinity... seems it will take a few days  to fix. We cannot go to a cafe or library to use alternate means as these are closed with the lockdown 

Now for the photos 

Alkira’s new premises is taking shape... steel work almost complete
