This is not our first lockdown. We were locked down in 82 with no power, closed transport links and food shortages. Covid is a doddle in comparison mainly because Iām not wearing a scratchy jumper this time.

It looks like their wonāt be much depth to the snow and thereāll be rain following in behind pretty quickly. Those in the south of the country might see a bit more action.
