00:00Hi there it's Lorraine here and I've just been thinking about this pandemic and how
00:04many big moments that we've missed. Of course Christmas we couldn't be with our families which
00:09was really really tough and birthdays anniversaries all of that and this week my dad turned 80 and of
00:16course that would have been a huge celebration in normal times and we couldn't be there to see him
00:21of course it was just him and my mum. We obviously sent him lots of presents but it did feel
00:25really
00:25weird that we weren't all together as a family and just hoping that I'll be able to go up to
00:29Scotland and see both of them really soon and of course we've got Mother's Day coming up at the
00:35weekend and that's going to be really hard for everyone too because not everybody lives with
00:40their mum or is able to see their mum and of course we're going to be sending things you know
00:45we're
00:45lucky that we can do things online and all of that but it's just that thing of missing your mum
00:50and of
00:50course if you don't have your mum in your life if she's no longer with you that's very sad as
00:56well
00:56so I hope that you can celebrate Mother's Day in some way and certainly of course I'll do you know
01:02the zoom call that we're all doing and I've sent my mum some lovely flowers and little bits and pieces
01:07to cheer her up but yeah it's these moments that we're all missing so we all can't wait to get
01:13back to
01:13normal. I'm lucky I had my vaccination this week so that was fantastic and I feel as if another big
01:19step on the way back to normal yes we've got you yay I've got my special basteen jumper
01:33You done? Is that it? Really? That was so easy I don't even feel that
