Re: OT: Coronavirus: Sophie Raworth's deserted London - BBC News
I've had some bicycle parts on order from a supplier in China (carbon rims for the new bike) since before COVID-19 became the only thing anyone discusses. They're finally in the USA now. My friend there told me that their usual premium shipping service was being restricted from any deliveries to the USA; the only way they could ship was via DHL or FedEx out of Hong Kong, and even that required both a double shunt there from the factory and then a wait for a flight to be shipped on because *all* commercial cargo transports are down 85-90% at the present time. Quite a different world since three-four short weeks ago! No ride here for the past two days, and today, because of the on again/off again weather, but I did get out for walks on both days (and will again today). Everyone's expecting the big bump in the plague infections/deaths this week: streets are becoming pretty deserted even for walks. I did take the Leica with the 10mm lens on it out with me yesterday. I've got a few exposures that I may post.

My son Stefan cycled from his home in Clapham Common up to Battersea Park and back for some exercise on the Brompton. There were quite a few people out and about walking, some sat in the parks and the police were moving them on. Stef got moved on a couple of times. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ UK Shoot / Edit || (O) | -- _ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

I cycled up to Kew Bridge and back today and normally when I’m there all you can here is aeroplanes approaching or leaving Heathrow. Today i didn’t remark on their absence, but I was cycling with my hearing aids in, which i don’t usually do, and all I could hear was the unaccustomed racket made by delivery scooters as they approach. https://adobe.ly/2Rclc7c -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
