Has Coronavirus caused a benefit to the environment?

A message we sent to the street we're in today.
"Hi X Close,
As we all self isolate we're declaring 5pm BEER O'CLOCK! Instead of sitting inside or on your back deck looking at the beautiful bush we are lucky enough to live near grab a chair and sit out on your front drive and wave to your neighbours and maybe have a 2 metre chat with your neighbours.
Hope to see you on your drive tomorrow. Please don't feel obliged.
I will, of course, keep up my end & be there every day!!
Warm Regards,
Lauren & David"

Feel free to pass this on in your street.
Cheers

 

Could also be a good time for neighbours to return that drill, saw, shovel, lawnmower, or wife, that they borrowed a while back...... and forgot to return?

Assuming they are still in good “working order”..

 

Got 10 at a respectful distance & 4 kids. Just checked in that all were doing okay & caught up with each other . Were all just exercising at the same time.
Bring on tomorrow.
Cheers

 

My environment, well, my personal space environment, has definitely improved since the distance measures were introduced.

By everyone keeping a 2m distance whilst in public, I’ve not had my senses assaulted, by “close” talkers with disgusting breath, people with putrid body odour, gym junkies with foul unwashed clothes, and even those that choose to wear awful cheap perfumes.

 

You stopped going to shopping malls

 

Still doing the odd trip to the supermarket....... but have indeed noticed the improvement.

 

My environment has improved thanks to cv...

Path and veg garden that have been waiting 20 years to be achieved!

 

There's a couple of ton of firewood just the other side of the gate. Winter will be easier this year!

 

Just to remind you back in the 80’s we called the “cul-de-sac “ the “Dead End”

When we were visiting the North Shore Oahu Hawaii a while back we loved that they have the sign up “Dead End” to inform you of this type of suburban geography. Gotta love it !
