I cant dump beauty so under the houses pieces went, the intention would be to do up one day/ retirement !!!! This lock down is not as good as the last... so I've been under the house and am at present repairing 2 dressers, a captains chair, 2 oak chairs and an oak table. I encourage others to do the same as it does keep you busy and we have a little time at present. All the best everyone...

He is chipped and neutered. We haven't moved house and he has never wandered off before, he was last seen on Monday night. I have posted on other sites as well hoping that he may be shut in a garage or shed etc and someone could find him. We live in Cunliffe Place and have searched for him as much as we can with Level 4 restrictions but no sign of him. Photo attached is a bit old but can't find a newer one. The tabby is missing, not the ginger. Could you please just open up your garage or shed if you shut it on Monday and haven't been in since, just in case he is in there. Thank you so much for your help, seems to be a lot of cats going missing over the last week or so.

- Boundaries maintained in the last February lockdown will be reinstated.
- Around 500 locations of interest have been identified.

“We’ve got this massive lemon tree at the back, we were going to take the lemons to work to share, but then obviously we went into lockdown,” Efa said.
“They’re pretty ripe already so they’re good for all your baking needs, we’re just going to leave them out the front.”
The flat has three batches of lemons or around 90 in total.
“Stay safe, keep your distance, squeeze the day,” Efa said.
