‘It was winter, it was lockdown, it was pretty easy really, I mean baggy T-shirts and stuff,’ Laura replied. 

‘A soon as it was getting warmer, I was like we might have to announce this as I don’t want to be going for walks wearing jumpers in the middle of summer.’

‘You’ve effectively been shackled to the bedroom for the last 20 weeks,’ Laura’s fiancé Matty said.
