So it begins ... those who do pub quizzes take note, Mrs Keenan’s name will be required of you as soon as you’re allowed back in your local. Which may not be too long away now.

A 90-year-old woman has become the first person to be given a Covid jab as part of the mass vaccination programme being rolled out across the UK.
Margaret Keenan, who turns 91 next week, said it was the "best early birthday present".
She was given the injection at 06:31 GMT - the first of 800,000 doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine that will be given in the coming weeks.
Up to four million more are expected by the end of the month.
Hubs in the UK will vaccinate over-80s and some health and care staff - the programme aims to protect the most vulnerable and return life to normal.
Matron May Parsons administered Ms Keenan's vaccine at University Hospital in Coventry.
