Last week Kezzie posed some post isolation questions and asked people to take part, I hadn't given any thought to what I would do when lockdown was officially over, so I really enjoyed mulling these over.



1. Restaurant you would go out to.
The Bildestone Crown. This jumped into my head first, so I'm going with it. We last ate there during our week of eating out. Or maybe the Fox & Goose in Fressingfield, then we can visit the graves of Andy's Grandparents after our meal. Or perhaps our first restaurant visit will be a rescheduled meal at The Leaping Hare, we were meant to go for a friend's birthday meal.

2. Friend you would meet up with first.
It's hard to choose, there are so many people that, even though I don't see them very often, I really miss them.



3. Place you would go.
The beach!

4. Shop you would go to.
All the charity shops. I miss having a good charity shop rummage - Sophie, Kezzie - we need to organise a meet up when we can.

5. Food item you would buy/eat
Fish n Chips with my Dad.



6. Cake you would eat.
See answer 13.

7. Show you would/will go to see.
I don't generally see many shows but I do fancy seeing something funny. I've been watching Sarah Millican read her book How To Be Champion on IGTV everyday, so maybe I'll try to get tickets for her next tour. Also, I'm hoping that the Ed Sheeran Exhibition will continue in Christchurch Mansion (I know it's not a show, but y'know...), I'd planned to see it but it was closed to the public before I had the chance.

8. Concert you will go to watch.
I'd love to see something orchestral.

9. Relative you will hug first
Either my Mum or Dad. Everyone I see is going to get such a hugging!

10. Holiday you would go on
The holiday we're probably going to have to cancel - a week in France with Andy's family.

11. Other activity you would take part in.
A night out with friends. Meeting friends for coffee. Movie nights with friends. Anything with my friends...

12. Thing you would do at work.
Work hasn't actually changed much for me as I'm freelance and work from home, but I'd like to meet up with the two freelancers I regularly work with.



13. Item you would buy
I'd go to the only independent bookshop in our local town and buy something from there, then I'd go to the independent plant based cafe, Hullabaloo, and have one of their delicious cakes, most probably the beetroot chocolate cake. Then I'd drive to Felixstowe and visit The Wool Baa to buy some wool and enjoy a cuppa, and then to Crafty Coffee to paint a celebratory 'isolation is over' mug.

This was a great idea Kezzie. Thank you! It was nice to think about all the lovely things that I can do when this is all over. Once lockdown is over I'll report back.

Take care, stay safe, and let me know if you answer these questions too!
