Morning!

Have we survived the opening of pubs and restaurants? As I didn’t go anywhere, I have no idea. Day two and it’s very windy out there so best stay in to view one of the ton of movies on TV.

Don’t forget to celebrate the 72nd anniversary of the NHS. Back to clapping at 5 this afternoon.

Stay safe, look after yourself and Happy Sunday!
