Re-negotiating space: walking in a time of pandemic (COVID-19 blog no. 9)

You are walking along the footpath and there is someone else walking from the opposite direction.

After a bout of feigned laughter and mutual hand gesturing the awkwardness eventually ends and you both carry on your merry way. That was pre-COVID-19, of course.
