air bridges...
— Gemma Wiseman (@AuraGem) May 23, 2020
The term 'air bridges' seems to be toted mostly by the UK. (They are also called 'travel corridors'.)
Add this new terminology to 'social bubble' and 'household bubble'.
The next edition of the Macquarie Dictionary may need some intense updating...all thanks to 2020 and covid-19.
Again, I ask - For how long will these terms last, or will they quickly disappear into the museum of historical oddities...locked into a timeframe...???

bad side of me...
I used to cook everything for my children...but struggled to eat any significant amounts myself...The smell of food and I somehow don't connect...Never have...Fresh food and I have far better connections...But tonight...I thought I would try some other food... Loving it...PASSING THOUGHT: Wait for it... Here comes 'bad' side of me...I intensely dislike cooking...Whew...Now I've said it in this great ISO baking madness...But tonight...I decided to order in a pizza + prawn salad...(haven't ordered in food in about 2 years either)... It's GREAT!— Gemma Wiseman (@AuraGem) May 23, 2020
tottering Bookhenge...
'a kind of totttering Bookhenge' appeals to my sweetly cluttered book spirit... Ian McMillan's journey of rediscovery will be continuing...I may try the same journey... https://t.co/fFIWN8kvcb— Gemma Wiseman (@AuraGem) May 23, 2020

buddha and cobwebs...
PASSING THOUGHT: My attitude to cobwebs has changed. I have not been keen about those fine webby attachments to objects. (OK...It's the spider thought that bothers me.) But now, I Iike the extra webby adornment. It's a symbol that past and present time are together. Love buddha. pic.twitter.com/4XmLybvOpT— Gemma Wiseman (@AuraGem) May 23, 2020

I may not be...
Such a humble leaf...bland colours and shape...yet, with a little rain...surrounding it...such beauty...I may not be— Gemma Wiseman (@AuraGem) May 22, 2020
a classic beauty
but if I surround myself
with beauty
I can become...#tanka #MayTanka #naTankaMo #5lines pic.twitter.com/3pTz4BL6cV
