Review – Gifted¦ I was so pleased when lockdown was finally put in place in the UK earlier this week. It was much needed to protect our NHS and the most vulnerable in our society. I hope everyone reading this is safe and well and, of course, following the rules. That isn’t to say that it isn’t without its challenges. I’m worried enough about the next time my husband goes shopping, let alone those amongst my friends and family who work in schools, retail, distribution and care work.
