This is a tactic I use. Weather permitting, spending an hour out on the bicycle often pays large dividends.

The pandemic has been bad in many ways but during the first lockdown i got into the habit of a nightly hour long walk. It's been a really great thing for my mind space after work each day.

Yep, wonderful thing indeed. Unfortunately it means selfishly spreading whatever plague-of-the-moment around, so some places instituted a 8pm-5am curfew to prevent these inappropriate habits from forming. Vic, AU had curfew for 5? 6? months out of the last two years. Worked wonders for some people's mind space.

Sorry for the rant.

Yikes sorry to hear that. I thought the restrictions were bad in my neck of the woods but that is much more difficult

Yeah it's funny when the internet goes out or my power goes out, I'm like counting the seconds in real time, like what do I do now.

That's addiction, it wears on you as you get older.
