Saturday 9 May

Fifty days since they closed the schools – that’s a long time.
We are all anticipating BJ’s speech to the nation tomorrow; we’ve only seen him once since he returned after recovering from the virus himself, but is a father again now of course.
Sir Keir Starmer, the recently elected Labour leader, is certainly going to be a formidable opponent for him at the dispatch box and in the media.
Woke this morning and really thought it was Sunday – it’s bad enough having the days mixed up with a lockdown but then a Bank Holiday is chucked in and things become even more confusing.
And it is another beautiful day today with wall-to-wall sunshine and we will be having a barbecue later; the kids love a BBQ.
