News reporting and journalism should in theory involving meeting and talking to a lot of different people.

However things rapidly change when lockdown comes into force.

For example this week a lot of my time launching and promoting out Newest Nub News site in Kingston.

So despite this launch the only person I've been able to tell in person is my girlfriend (and she's sick of hearing about it.)

This is a scenario that was truly unimaginable just 12 months ago.

Luckily the marvel of modern technology means that it has still been easy to talk to people about Nub News.

But throughout my whole time as a reporter at Nub News I've still only been able to meet a fraction of the people that I would've done in normal times.

Hopefully this can change in the coming months.
