Another day of mild weather, sunshine and occasional showers. The news of the day is dominated by pre- match feelgood hype over the Euro soccer semi final between England and Denmark. I find this tiresome when there's so much debate going on about the wisdom of easing covid restrictions early, plus reports of the assassination of the President of Haiti, and another on the total economic collapse of Lebanon in the wake of the catastrophic explosion last year which destroyed swathes of the bayside residential area.
I went to the Eucharist at St Catherine's this morning, collected this week's veggie bag on the way back, and then cooked lunch an afternoon walk around Llandaff Fields to Western Avenue and down the Taff Trail. The roads are noticeably busier lately the stench of vehicle exhaust fumes hang in the air in the vicinity.
Before and after supper I worked on making the video of tomorrow's Morning Prayer with a new selection of slides to go with the audio of the day. The task consumed the entire evening. I had to tune in at the end of the radio news to learn that the English team won its place in the final against Italy, and switch off again to avoid the drivel from the commentariat and vox pops. Sixty thousand people in Wembly stadium for the match. Will it be possible to know how many people catch covid from attending? And how many more who didn't attend will catch it by contact with them, or from watching the match in a social setting? We'll learn in due course I suppose.
