Episode 17 – Social Distance Sanity Savers (plus Bondi Rescue)
As we continue to remotely record whilst the plague rages on, Nat and Liz discuss how they are staying sane whilst homeschooling, preparing endless bloody meals and staring out into the sunshine – with a few good books and shows thrown in for good measure. Time to stay in our bubble.

The Kindness Pandemic We set up #TheKindnessPandemic because so many people need acts of kindness right now; and so many others want to hear stories of kindness. Kindness won’t make COVID19 go away, but it will make our lives easier and more rewarding. We particularly encourage intergenerational kindness, but welcome you sharing all acts of kindness. The Kindness Pandemic is an initiative of Celebrate Ageing, a social enterprise building respect for older people.
