Nothing can't see a single person ,no cars going up and down the road.

A small cul-de-sac, 9 houses. Not a soul to be seen. Quite a few extra cars though, so it looks like people have got guests.

I live on an island. There is always precisely nothing going on outside in my street. Ever 😂 The Northern lights show up once or twice a year. We get some off the scale storms … the named ones are kindergarten level for us …

Heaven!

All roads into our village are now road blocked by the police due to an illegal rave

Nothing, apart from a couple of people out on a morning run.

Rain. Sun. Rain. Sun. All in about 10 mins!

Today we have had every kind of weather. Rain and wind, then hailstones rattling against the windows then sun. Then we had heavy snow- the huge flake kind. Fortunately it didn't last. More sun, more rain and more sun, just as my visitors left. I am contemplating the chaos in the kitchen. However I've had 3 glasses of bubbles, so I'm not convinced of the urgency to tidy up. Enjoy the rest of Easter

Absolutely nothing!

Nothing and I love it. It's a perfect Spring day too.

Couple of cars just went past. No sign of people in either direction. And I live in North London!

It's very quiet. I was weeding and a couple walked by with a pomeranian but that's been all. My street is usually very quiet.

Tide's out and there are some gulls milling about.

Man walking a very small dog, like a rat on a rope. Dog Dad stops every few steps to let it sniff about, and whilst I can't hear the words, I can hear the tone of voice he's using. This dog/rat is clearly adored.

Next door have just had a takeaway delivered. Cats have come in wanting food. I can hear a moped buzzing along the main road. It may be the takeaway driver. I'd better go and feed the cats before they start rioting.

Jealous! Even though the beaches are only 4 miles away!

I’m about a mile inland and it’s so quiet outside right now I can hear the roar of the sea. I’ve got my window open because it’s like a lovely white noise for me.

It’s almost daybreak here in the Middle East. I can hear birds chirping, that’s about it.
