What was the last photo you took when the world was "normal"? Prompted by this item on the BBC website, I thought it might be interesting to share the last photo taken before 23 March.

    I've got fotos from a short trip to Switzerland, 9-12 March but the shadow was already falling then, I was worried about getting back across the border before they closed it on 13th.

    Got to go back to 27 Feb. Prague re-named the square where the Russian Embassy stands, "Boris Nemtsov Square". Virus well down people's lists of what to worry about that day! 

    The dark haired woman is Nemtsov's daughter, btw, made a fine speech in fluent English.

    Mines is actually a football one - went to Dulwich Hamlet a few days before the lockdown was announced.

    This was when I told her there’d be no more going out for walks or football.

    I just checked all my photos on my phone dating back 5 years and I don’t have a normal photo on there. Sorry.

    Took this in Arras just before lockdown. My daughter had messaged me to ask what I was drinking.

    A week or so before lockdown we spent some vouchers at the cheese bar in seven dials market with my brother and his wife and it seems like years ago. I remember discussing the virus with them. Then we just ate and drank like it was the last night of freedom. What an excuse. Photo opp for them on the banana on the way out of the market post cocktails. This was the last pic I took before the lockdown.

    "The twins have got shitty arses", is a quote from Angela's Ashes that we use whenever the rabbits have dirty bottoms. Here they are getting a clean up.

    Lewisham High Street, Sunday 15 March. We'd been to the pub the previous night, a few friends declined to join us because they had already decided to lie low for a bit. We had one last glorious night in the boozer.

    I was on my way home, as I was working that afternoon - the last time I went into work rather than doing it from my front room.

    I saw this ad and thought - "bit off message, isn't it?"

    Bizarrely, the last pic on my phone before lockdown is a joke one of me and two mates wearing face masks on a lads golf weekend the week before
