Reflections in a Winter Wonderland

Taking a countryside walk surrounded by snow near Ashford, in Kent, on 13/12/2022 I reflect on the differences this year following the previous two Christmases impacted by Covid-19, and how in many ways, because of the ongoing uncertainty with Russia/Ukraine, nothing has changed.

Nature & Normality

Exploring Romney Marsh Nature Reserve with my son Edison on 16/01/2022, I talk about the overwhelmment of the NHS and how ‘normal’ life is different to two years ago; meanwhile Edison enjoys the simplicity of the natural setting.

A Birthday Reflection

During a walk to the top of Summerhouse Hill in Etchinghill, near Folkestone, Kent on 09/11/2021 I discuss the impact of Covid-19; the many ways normality has resumed but express my long-term concerns.  Amid new vaccine regulations in France and Italy I also reflect on the personal challenges ahead.

The Importance Of Mental Health

During a walk around Mersham le-Hatch Deer Park on 14/09/21 I talk about the importance of Mental Health and open up about the personal impact inflicted by the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Greatstone Shingle Trail

During a walk along the Shingle Trail in Greatstone, Romney Marsh, Kent on 14/08/2021 I enjoy the solitude and beauty of being in nature.  I also reflect on the aftermath of the pandemic following a recent announcement made on the United Kingdom’s freedom day.  I finish the walk on the beach before reuniting with my young son Edison.

The Emergence Of Vaccine Apartheid

During a visit to the park in Aldington, Kent on 17/07/2021 with my son Edison I update on the lingering societal impact of the Covid-19 pandemic in spite of the large number of people who have received their vaccinations and the forthcoming United Kingdom ‘Freedom Day’ .  In contrast, I add how from August 1st, France will require mandatory proof of vaccinations or a negative Covid test to enter supermarkets as the segregation and discrimination against non-vaccinated people begins to emerge.

The phrase “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from the virus  they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated” exemplifies my confusion with many people’s opinion.

A Hesitant Update

Following a trip to the park with my son Edison on 03/05/21, I walk and talk about the vaccine rollout reaching 65% of the population of the United Kingdom (UK).   After discovering some farm buildings I update on the latest lifting of restrictions for public events ahead of the forthcoming June 21st date, set by the UK to be the end of lockdown.

A Camp In The Woods

During a woodland stroll through Hamstreet nature reserve in Kent on 28/03/2021, I update on the lockdown and easing of Covid-19 restrictions in the United Kingdom and find a camp with my three year old son Edison.

Restrictions, Tunnels & Drills

During a walk with my son Edison on 06/03/2021 I update on the latest easing of social restrictions, the reaction to the Brazilian variant and the forthcoming reopening of schools; Edison enjoys the acoustics of a tunnel and playing with his toy drill.

On Top Of The Downs

On top of the North Downs near Wye, Kent on 27/02/2021 with my son Edison I reflect on the positive announcement of the pubs opening in a few months and social restrictions lifting on June 21st – provided certain conditions are met. Meanwhile, Edison enjoys the slopes and playing around the campfire.
