3 years ago today, a week before lockdown, the Courier features team was ‘sent home’ as the #Covid_19 situation unfolded. Life has never been quite the same, but for sure - we can be proud of the 156 Weekend mags & online content written & produced almost entirely at home since!

Never tire of the ever changing views crossing the @NetworkRailSCOT Tay Bridge aboard @ScotRail between #Dundee and #Fife - especially on a beautifully calm night like this! Check out the low flying seagulls flying beyond the high girders at #sunset this evening.
