I can’t quite believe how quiet the world where I live has become. No cars, no jet trails to scatch the heavens, only the sound of wind in the trees and VERY LOUD bird song. The natural world seems oddly unperturbed by Covid19.

Today should have been the start of this year’s Grand Tours with usual team back on the road. Sadly Covid19 has put an end to that plan for the foreseeable future anyway. A first world problem I know but disappointing. In the meantime, here’s a pic of where we should have been!
