BRITISH BAND BUSINESS TIME'S FABULOUS LOCK DOWN VIDEOS!


Here's the tenth video in Business Time's series of lockdown videos. They say: "We've gone for something we've never done before for this one, a cover of How Far I'll Go from Disney's Moana, Gaz's favourite movie."

This great British band are putting out these fabulous videos while they can't do live gigs. As well as portraying their usual superb musical standard, this video has a remarkable presentation. They are so creative and talented! My nephew Tom Bailey is on bass, singer is Laura Nield, guitarist Gaz Edmunds and drums Andrew Hill. Tom says: "We all set up and record our own standard videos at home. I then compile them together and edit it."

COVID-19 RULES IN PARADISE

 

Me jogging in our tiny front garden!

The Covid-19 rules in The Bahamas are always changing back and forwards under the Executive Orders that are imposed by the "Competent Authority", aka our Prime Minister. And every time it's announced that the PM is going to give an address, we all quiver in our shoes! There's panic at the food stores as people are thrown into fear that we might have another lock down.

Fortunately, it looks as though complete lock downs are on hold for now (and I hope they'll never come about), but there's always the possibility of some form of shut down if Covid-19 cases don't level off.

Right now on New Providence the only time we can exercise at any hour (except for the 10 p.m. - 5 a.m. curfew) is in our own "yards"! We are allowed to exercise in our "immediate neighbourhood" from 5 a.m. - 9 a.m. and go to the beaches and parks then, but I'm not an early bird!

Longing for freedom and long walks.
