"I am looking forward to the simple things like going back out to a restaurant, getting a coffee in a café and sitting down, and getting back to the gym. Home workouts and homemade coffee are great, but you can only do so much. I can’t wait to book a holiday and look forward to travelling again and if anything, all that has happened makes me want to see the world even more.

"This whole experience has made me appreciate how important it is to be social and how important family is. This is the longest stretch that I haven’t been home to see my family and it is difficult but we must do what needs to be done and stay at home.

"I’ve also learned that there is so much else in life that we should appreciate more, like going out and meeting friends. I’m a huge sports fan and not being able to go out and watch the rugby or football at the weekend is tough. But on a positive note, all this makes me realise how much time we have, it’s just about prioritising it. I’ve recently started playing guitar again and I am really enjoying it. It’s not something I would have gotten back into if I still had a busy schedule."
