Now, what if you added a delicious cocktail into the mix? A cocktail so good it tastes as though it was made by one of the incredible bartenders at The Locker themselves. Sounds pretty good, right? Read this article through and you can have this perfect evening too!

Déjà Vu
Submission by Marina Hodson at Kawartha North FHT
Here we go again…. Déjà Vu is a feeling that you have experienced something before and literally translated means “already seen”. Personally, when the current lockdown was announced in December, I had more than a little bit of a feeling of Déjà Vu and I imagine I was not alone.
Lockdown 2.0 - How to Stay Busy in Isolation, Support Small Business, and Take Care of your Mental Health
We are now in our second government-issued lockdown. One would think the second time around would be easier but there is nothing easy about socially isolating oneself, staying busy at home, keeping your business afloat with no business coming in, and overall feeling like you are living in limbo. Thankfully for those who live and are a part of our wonderful community, there is support in all directions for both individuals and businesses alike. I think this article is important to let you all know that whatever you are feeling, whether it's a much-needed break from the fast pace of life or fear of the unknown, you are not alone. Through social media, I have reached out to see what people in our community have been doing to cope with the lockdown and below are a few of the responses that I received.
