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!

On this day in 1987: An incredible night for Dundee Utd as they won 2-1 at Barcelona. The home team had Gary Lineker and Mark Hughes in their side but they failed to overturn their 0-1 deficit that they had going into this QF 2nd leg.

Beautiful day for a visit to the Caiplie Caves on the Fife Coastal Path near #Crail.
