We came up with 57 varieties of things to do during lockdown – but not in one day: 1. Turn old postcards into cards. Just to say “Missing you”, “Remember this day last year” or other greetings. Get your cards from craft shops, The Range, The Works etc. 2. If you are a letter hoarder, type them up, add photos and turn them into a book.
