This is the word from the trenches:

Well lovers… it’s been a hard year.  

Yet, we must keep a stiff upper lip, mussent grumble.  
 
There’s a war on, you know.  Let’s support the boys at the front with good spirits back here at the home front, wot?!
 

Tally ho then, spit spot.  Face coverings, the Queen is doing it so shall we.  Social distancing?  We are mostly nerds and don’t like talking to other people anyway.

Tell my wife I love her.
