SCARPERED

2021: Up and down. In and out. Bereaved. Scarpered.

City Hall Belfast

Arrived in Belfast on New Year's Eve. Here we are whizzing by the City Hall on our hunt for open (as advertised) Covid testing clinics on the required day. No luck. Isolation extended from 2 or 3 days to several days. No worries. Plenty of 'essential supplies' plus daughter's good friends made welcome-back door drops. Ironically, just after completing our iso' the UK gov ditched that requirement!

Cavehill

Did I mention it has snowed on and off? Rain of course in between. This is the view from my January bedsit. Rubbing shoulders with Cavehill. You can see all of Belfast from the top. The outline of Cavehill is likened to the profile of a sleeping giant and is said to have inspired Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels. And oh yes, sunset is around 4.30 pm.
