Our daughter was back to nursery today! What a relief. We took a walk by ourselves together before we started work – something we haven’t done for a long time. A full days work each with no interruptions – bliss! Stress levels significantly reduced. Here’s hoping the idiots seen on Dorset beaches and other places where no social distancing is taking place don’t cause another spike.
