It could have been a 'normal' spring afternoon

Leigh on Sea lockdown sound recorded by Emma Paterson.

"My one lockdown walk of the day with a beautiful view of the Estuary - and a little stop off to post a letter. 

"It could have been a 'normal' spring afternoon - a spot of DIY in the garden (you'll hear the drill), a family out on their bikes, dog walkers strolling across Marine Parade. 

"Leigh was looking it's best, tide up, blue sky and bright sun (if a little blustery) - there's nowhere else I'd rather be on lockdown (well maybe the South of France). "
