Horses in the orchard

I was down at the market early to just get some mussels as we are eating out with friends tonight. Mask wearing is now required in the streets again here as we become the department with the highest Covid incidence is France. This is due to our proximity to Spanish Catalonia where case numbers are high and to the influx of large numbers of French tourists who are all taking their holidays at home. I stayed for a coffee on the cafe terrace but was careful to keep my distance from people generally. We will be masked up again for bellringing practice this evening and hope to ring a touch of Grandsire doubles as, having visiting ringers allows our mostly novice band to ring more than rounds and call changes.
