Rob Clifford is chief executive of Stonebridge While it is very early days – I’m writing this in the week when further lockdown restrictions were lifted mid-May – I’m already starting to hear some whispers which suggest (fingers crossed) that we are beginning to see the signs of a return to a pre-pandemic normality. With the considerable caveat that nothing is ever likely to be the same again. “I’m now in the office a day or two a week.” “The roads/trains/buses were all busier today than over the last few months.” “I had to queue up to get my coffee today”, being a first-world problem of the finest order.
