I liked it, and what followed - even more.
Here restrictions are being reimposed, as we are experiencing a resurgence
of Covid. One club is open, but limited tp 20 people. So are restaurants,
which probably means that many will not survive (quite a few closed down
following the first Covid wave).
Cheers,
Marek
