📷 #MarketFriday Found no bananas+Video | 星期五市场买不到香蕉+视频😎 (by @ace108)
Out to get lunch yesterday but thought of getting bananas in the supermarket first. I decided to walk on the walkway instead of inside the shops corridor. It wasn't raining. There was no hot sun and it was a sheltered walkway. Don't ask me what's with carrying the umbrella in front. 😎
昨天出去买午饭，但想先去超市买香蕉。我决定在走道走，而不是在商店走廊走。没下雨没有炎热的太阳，这里也是又开走廊。别问我前面拿着伞为了什么。😎
🎶Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particular the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Spring.
🎶让大家继续读的时候，欣赏一点音乐。这件作品是维瓦尔第的“四季”的一部分 - 4小提琴协奏曲中的第一首，名为“春天”。

请看我其他帖: @ace108
You are going to be running out of places to eat soon, Ace! @Ace108 It Seems like they are closing down one by one. There still seems to enough open to serve people and the wait doesn't seem so long.
I am not sure I would go out unless I had to. Are you restricted to stay indoors yet? We are now on lockdown and can only go out when necessary to help minimize exposure.
I hope the lady liked what you got her for lunch! :) As always, thank you for participating in the challenge!
#MarketFriday loves you!

Thanks and you're welcome.
I going to different place to support so hopefully they find enough people to continue to operate. After the first day of closure, some closed earlier seeing less business and some decided not to operate from 2nd day. Food places only selling for take not and no dining in allow. They arrested an old man on day one for eating there. I guess maybe he's got nothing to lose. Put in him jail and he get serve 3 meals a day and he's old enough.
We are told not allowed to social gather outside of our home including even visiting parents or dropping kids for grandparents to look after. If you want, let the grandparents look after the kids for a whole month and not see them. However, visiting them to help and bring them food is allowed as exception which is what we have to do. There are also news laws and social distance and people have been given warning for not observing that in markets. I think they will start to fine people soon. 2 people who came back from overseas and didn't adhere to stay home notice were charged in court recenlty.
Malls are mostly closed except for supermarket and food places. We have a website that tells how crowded the malls are to know which to avoid. https://www.spaceout.gov.sg/
Open air stadium was opened for exercise until day before. They closed it because people were still gathering in groups to exercise. So, punished the whole nation because of groups of people.
Parks still open for exercise. We have a website that tells which are more crowded. https://safedistparks.nparks.gov.sg/ They started to use drones to observe the crowds https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/drones-in-parks-nature-areas-keep-crowds-at-bay-during-circuit-12631866
I hope we don't end up closing the parks. I think people do need some sun for Vitamin D to build immunity too.
Wow... so long story. Could have been a post by itself.
Yes! :) You did write a long story here! That was good information you wrote. In Italy, they are putting GPS trackers on people who keep breaking the law and congregating or leaving the area.
I hope that this ends soon. I know people are impatient to get on with their lives, but, I don't want to rush it. I want this to end without any loose ends.
Be careful out there, Ace!
#MarketFriday loves you!

Thanks. I guess you run out of jail space if we start to put people queuing a bit to close to other people but it's scary to go to supermarket yesterday when I see family making the trips as a family outing. I think there are more parents with kids in the supermarket then before when more of the kids running about. Now, latest rule is all has to wear mask in public transport and going to markets, malls, or supermarket. It would be simpler to just tell people no going out without mask.
That is what they did here. Depending on what state you live in, you must wear a mask when you leave the house.
People still haven't figured out what the correct proper social distancing is.
Have a great day, Ace!

Thanks. You have a great day too.
Fortunately, some reusable masks were given recentlyl
Otherwise, it's really hard to buy them.
New's has it that Malaysia is down to 2 weeks supplies of PPEs.

We were out of them from the start. One of the reasons we started making them!
Stay safe, Ace!
