Dinner is served

With restaurants being closed we have taken to ordering take aways.  The classic take away is of course Indian food.  Last night we feasted on chicken tikka massala with a tomato and potato dish.  I had prepared a side salad each but I didn't need it as we also received an Arabic Salad and of course we had nann bread.  Hubby went and picked our order up and was also gifted with two face masks.

We have obviously been spending most of our time indoors and not just  because of the virus, the pollution levels here are still very high and it is very hot, reaching 41 degrees.  During the late afternoon we have taken to sitting outside for an hour.  We have been joined by an American lady and a Chinese grandmother with her nine year old granddaughter.  The young girl has been attending school here and we actually got to her know from swimming.   She is very fast, so loved to try and race with hubby.  She does cheat by getting out of the water and running down the side,  she also splashes him if he is winning,  which is most of the time.  It is all a good laugh.   Now that we are unable to swim she has taken to bringing a ball down and getting him to play ball.  I join in.  Another friend brings down badminton rackets and shuttle cox so we also play badminton in the drive way.  We all wear masks and keep safe distances apart.  Although last night I did run to the aid of the child T, as she fell into one of the small pools.  Apart from being very wet she was ok.   Without these bits of fun life would be very boring.  I hope that you are finding ways to stay active and have fun.  Most of all stay safe.
