What I miss most in lockdown

Having been ill from February 2020 my lockdown began earlier than most. I am officially going stir crazy now, but I'm not alone in this- well I am alone as I'm still shielding but so are many others!

What I miss most:

• Wild swimming (swimming in rivers and lakes), is cool again but is something I have always indulged in. My all time favourite place is Dinham Bridge in Ludlow, stunningly beautiful as you can see in my photograph above. It is a spot well used by generations of local families which is always a good sign in terms of safety.

• Trips out to middle England with my family for a picnic. The photograph below was taken at Bodenham Arboretum in Wolverly and it reminds me of happy sociable days. Being out with my family, taking pictures and enjoying the wild scenery.
