Cabot Circus Shopping Centre in lockdown

Everyone was spooked by covid they didn’t notice the increasing spike in extraterrestrial activities.

Facilities are being developed so volunteer workers can thrive
Beautiful tulips to see can’t wait to see the other plants come into season, vegetables and herbs planted too.

New to Newport

What I usually do is spend money in local shops and do lots of walking so I can program myself mentally about where I am.

I feel like the statue, looking around me!

Shopping from highest price to lowest price order:

Esso garage £16 for 5-6 grocery items, Local newsagent £5.50 coffee, sandwich and soap, Polish superstore bleach cleaning bottle, uht milks, yogurts, crisps and about the same price Lidl £13 on veg, fruit, snacks and meal in a box salad.

Favourite walk, across the Transporter bridge 🙂

Was it easy to make friends? Was I able to keep up my eBay small business?

It is tiring having to think more about everything. It took me a long walk to reach a parcel box and I felt abit wobbly on day three at being away from my home. However the experience so far has been great and I am pleased to know Newport better.

Newport not ideal for quick shipping options with Royal Mail only about four parcel drops in the entire city.
