    I am pretty sure I know that walk. Lovely. And a great photo too.

      That's my morning walk, and also my view from my home office - this one taken on Wednesday from my desk.

        I would immediately be depressed if I lived in such a sh!thole. Pardon ;-)

            Living in 9m people city and yet receive 1 call a week from pimps whilst looking, down from 10-15 a day in 2019.

            Not sure if it's worth the money to pay for the flat, and just go somewhere cheaper and wait it out for 6 months at least.

            Tell me how successful you are in this environment and lift my mood
            I'm working until December. Then, who knows? I picked up this role back in May so there is hope.

            Otherwise it's tempting to decamp somewhere sunny and wait out the miserable UK covid winter. If you can leave the country and if you can find somewhere that will let you in.

            I guess there's always Mogadishu

              Looks nice but it rains even more there than it does here. And that's saying something.....

                Depends where "here" is. I reckon we get less rain than Manchester but more than London.

                  Even if you had to quarantine in the South of Spain it wouldn't be too bad with a bit of outdoor space. Plenty of cheap rentals.

                    Yes, Costa Blanca over Costa del Sol for me. Far less rain.

                    Or even the Canaries.

                      Costa Tropical is worth a look: Almuñécar, Salobreña, La Herradura.
