It was very short notice, literally a phone call saying they'd be coming in two days time. I keep saying it, but hopefully, after Tuesday that's all visits from workpeople done.

Yeah, it's been a big thing here that many people have been pinged without leaving their homes. It turned out that their neighbours have tested positive and the Bluetooth thought they were close enough to class as a contact despite walls between them.

James is lucky that his work is big enough they have a dedicated COVID department and that the contact happened on a workday. I suspect if it was on one of his days off the waters would have been muddied.

I enjoyed the match. I wasn't expecting the atmosphere to be as good due to the lack of fans but everyone watching stepped it up.

One thing, well, despite the goals, that still sticks in my mind is the Ukrainian players applauding their fans after the game. They all stood in formation, arms up in a Y and clapped really slowly at first, then faster and faster. It was lovely to see.
