I have sat redundant for endless days watching twigs bud to leaves in ever greener shades and missed and missed and missed you whilst my contagious sage drives to Durham and back middle fingers raised.

My daughter has Covid.
Her husband has Covid.
The 2-year-old was coughing.
The baby has a temperature.
They stayed at home.
Ran out of milk and paracetamol.
Fed the baby all night.
Took turns to cope with the toddler.
Obeyed the LAW.
