One week of village lockdown, 4 litres of milk left!

 


Dark and noisy outside. 

The sky is black with clouds and noisy with thunder. 

Also dark from smoke and falling embers and noisy with the crackle of a nearby fire. Smells like they are burning old branches and grass rather than plastic and other rubbish.

Our covid refugee has been with us for a week now, since our village shut and he couldn't get home. Strong rain last night, so Soeun put the tent up. He normally sleeps under just a mossie net.

We had a church meeting this morning, with just those of us here. 

The boys are collecting some snails and fish from the pond they just emptied. So much mud. So much fun for the kids.

They didn't tell us how long we will have to stay in our village for but we are hoping only 2 weeks. Even if we do get out in a week Im not sure if I can just zip to the supermarket as 3 communes in town are now in lockdown for 2 weeks.

For fresh food we can buy here, and most supermarket stuff I stocked up on. We are ok for oats and toilet paper, but we only have 4 litres of milk left.

Six hundred and something cases today.
