    Yeah, that seemed to be " fake " as well.
    Pics were taken at another place than Venice. Nothing is what it looks like.

    But Nature definitely benefits. I made this pic yesterday and send it to my daughter as a quite rare species hahahaha.

    Allmost all planes are grounded. No trails in the sky and no sound.

    This lockdown is seriously a plus for nature.

    We had a nitrogyncrisis just before our "smart" lockdown. Don't laugh but we should drive slower on certain roads etc.... to lower the output.
    Now the this crisis takes over.

    My favorite so far about nature was an Ausie news broadcast.. it was a segment about how the lions are taking over SA again, and they showed what they called a main road with about 20 lions lazing about. Great footage but it really just shows the rest of the world really doesn’t know a huge amount about our country... either that or I missed the memo and never got myself a lion to ride

    "News" sold by commercial "newscompanies". Last year there was a Polarbear-invasion at Nova Zembla. Students couldn't go to school etc...." It was caused by global warming "



    They appeared to be on a dump searching for food. So the biggest issue here were HUMANS. Polar bears are ALWAYS on Nova Zembla. Even our explorer Willem Bartenz had issues with Polar Bears when he had to stay there.

    Don't let them fool you !

    The clip I saw was clearly in a big game reserve like the Kruger.. so same thing. It’s actually funny to think how ignorant people are when it comes to that sort of thing - if it’s on tv, it must be true...

    :lol: Ok @DoubleDutch it’s an elephant. Enjoy the wine :thumbup:

    PS I’m actually really starting to feel the downer. This morning the cat caught the hamster, we had a funeral and I cried the longest and hardest, all the way through cleaning and packing away the hamster cage & equipment, doing the dishes and for the bulk of the morning tbh. And the announcement that cigarettes will after all not be for sale from tomorrow as previously announced. #sense of humour failure #tired of being treated like a child #not a good day

    Edit: we can’t buy any alcohol whatsoever so many people are resorting to brewing their own stuff and wish they could open a bottle of wine :)

    Awwwww feeling sorry for you.

    Bad things never come alone grrrrrrr.

    These days WW2 is remembered overhere.
    May 4th all the fallen for our freedom and may 5th our liberation of a 5 year "lockdown".
    The shown documentaries and told stories put some things in perpective. Only one generation back (My mum and dad were both born in WW2) and hardly imaginable.

    Nevertheless people have their own daily problems and issues. The crisis (and lockdown) is causing an unbalance for everyone (emotional, social, financial).

    Stay strong and healthy. We'll overcome !

    A warm hug from Holland

    Sorry to hear. And it’s at times like this, when life is so uncertain as it is, that this must hit really hard

    Did you not have a few days warning to get some stocks?

    We fortunately can still buy alcohol. Or maybe not. I have been dopping a bit too much over the last 6 weeks.
    Definitely need to detox when this is over :oops:
