I realise I’ve rather limped through this month and have a good few gaps to sort out. It was Community Fridge day today - I haven’t been for ages and it was really enjoyable catching up with our regulars. I slept badly though for some reason and was zonked afterwards but I did manage to make a mask for a wedding I’m going to in a couple of weeks (goes with my dress!) and Nigel and I had a walk out to find a few more cows - they’re popping up all over now. This Isaac Newton one is in front of St John’s College but his alma mater is in the distance as that chapel belongs to Trinity.
Weather: still mizzly
Covid: high cases in student parts of Cambridge but it’s increasingly hard to get our visitors to wear masks properly.
Good thing: very helpful team at the Fridge including one of our older, disabled visitors who managed quite a few jobs - just got to hope he’s not overdone it.
This cow would do Morrinsville in NZ proud. The town has 44 cows dotted all over the town….all life size & each is sponsored by a business…..for example the beauty place cow is all long eyelashes & lipstick. It’s a fun thing they have. Your cow looks a very learned one ….very suitable.
I'm looking forward to getting back into Cambridge again, I hope the cows are here to stay! We enjoyed finding all the decorated standing bears in Berlin a few years ago. I looked into buying one of the small bear ornaments, but at £60 each I decided I didn't really need one!
We had cows like these in Aberdeen some years ago and lovely to have walks around the city.
Would be good to try again....so many large stores have closed, 😪😪 John Lewis!!, and anything that might generate interest and visitors would be positive I think.
Isaac Mooton looks very dapper in his ruffles. Cow statues are awesome. I loved running across them in Charlotte a few years ago when they made a run here.
The population around here is getting rather lax with mask wearing. I'm more than a little concerned that it could lead to a resurgence as the number of vaccinations has slowed to a crawl.
