smallhobbitAs might be expected given the current situation, my new activities for the month have been somewhat limited. However, I am happy to report I have achieved something.
Firstly,![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
story_works Take A Leap Challenge for April was to try out a new fandom, so I went for Vienna Blood. I've posted here something of my reaction, together with my fic explorations of the TV programme.
Secondly, as part of my keeping fit despite the lockdown, I've discovered Sadler's Wells Company of Elders Workshops. Designed for the over 60s they offer a half hour session in various dance forms - so far they've covered Bharatanatyam, Flamenco, Contemporary and Dance Theatre. They are not patronising at all, but do make allowance for the fact that some of us aren't as supple as we once were. A bonus is that the movements don't require much space, which is good for our small dining room. And they all remind you to make sure the cat is not underfoot.
Thirdly, even though I worship in an Anglican church (and am therefore protestant) for the last couple of years I have followed the UK Jesuits online Lent retreat, which has a daily reading, thought and picture. This year, in response to coronavirus they have created an Easter retreat which runs from Easter to Pentecost.
