Love In The Time Of Corona

Home-schooling with Mr Dyson

A PE lesson in the garden involves learning the Swine Flu Skank while avoiding cat pooh and nettles. Plus a small cry in the bath, and that was all before Boris announced that the UK is in coronavirus lockdown.

Absolute Radio’s Matt Dyson and The Motherload’s Kate Dyson are facing 14 days of self-isolation after Kate seemingly contracted Covid-19.  This would be bearable if they weren’t parents to three kids - Bess, Maggie and Ted.  And if the schools hadn’t shut.

While Kate languishes in bed, googling random stuff like ‘Can cats die from Coronavirus’, Matt is single-handedly playing nurse, parent, running the household, and broadcasting from the dining room every weekday morning.

Can they and their marriage survive Coronavirus?  From Matt and Kate's virus-stricken household to your own, this is their diary.
