We are both retired, so no change In income, in fact have been spending less (£25 back from Admiral on the car insurance even)

But 91 yr old mother in law lives alone over 100 miles away so that’s a worry. Both daughters and all grandchildren live locally, but not able to see them currently.

Did all the decorating in lockdown one, so doing a lot of reading and walking.

The charity I volunteered at renovating tools is closed, as is the theatre I volunteered at.

The band I play bass in is dormant, but I have done quite a bit of remote recording, and the church band is still functioning with live streaming, which is enjoyable.

So not really badly affected, and both daughters and sons-in-law are able to continue working, so that’s not too much of a worry.

I really feel for those businesses who are struggling let alone failing, and of course for future generations who will be picking up the country’s tab for years to come.
