Feest Isolation Days – 13 November
Friday the 13th! Here it is. The second Friday the 13th this year. The first one was in March. Remember March? That Friday the 13th was a few weeks before we were all Locked Down! We knew there was something around but we hadn’t yet realised quite how it was going to change the lives of everyone on the planet. This time we enter the 13th on a more positive note! Universities are already gearing up to train medical students to administer vaccines. Doctors and nurses are being asked to come out of retirement to do the same. There are plans afoot to get the army involved in the process. Yea Haw! We are most likely and hopefully nearing the home stretch of dealing with this disease. For now though, we still stay locked down, follow the rules, and keep washing those hands for certain. But there is some hope! Thanks to the scientists.
I wonder what Christmas will bring?
An irrational fear of Friday the 13th is known as paraskevidekatriaphobia. But if you are in a Spanish speaking country you’re fine. Its Tuesday the 13th that scares people there. In Italy the fear mongers emerge on Friday the 17th.
As I’m sitting in Bristol on a beautiful sunny day and don’t intend to worry too much about the date, I thought it might be time for a few funnies to see us into the weekend.
I’ve spent a lot of the week talking about what is happening across the pond, so thought it was time for some British humour to even things out. I hope you enjoy some of these snippets of humour. Just the thing to get over a Friday the 13th and the mess that’s going on in the White House!
Hadn’t seen these chaps before…this is lockdown teacher humour….

Just a short little hop and a few seconds of the Vicar of Dibley…
Heading to London and Lee Mack…
Enjoy! Stay safe and see you on Monday. Batten down the hatches if you are in the UK, we are in for a wild and windy weekend! Easier to stay in though….
With love
