| Payment card. Tick. Shopping list. Tick. Reusable bags. Tick. Now just one more thing.. Do you have your mask at the ready? Today's the day you'll need to wear a face-covering in shops and we all need to be prepared or risk a £100 fine. It certainly controversial. We have reported back on what you think about it and differing approaches by high street stores. But the decision has been made for the right reasons - we only need to look across at neighbouring Blackburn to see what might have been. There will be no gyms opening in that part of Lancashire tomorrow as it faces special measures and been named an area of intervention. We will keep you abreast of the latest on the Covid-19 situation as it happens Meanwhile the news continues as usual. With more traffic on the roads, we expected more incidents, though perhaps not a cow on the motorway! As it's Friday, so no better time for the traditional Lancashire chippy tea so we compiled all your favourites. Have a great day and a happy and safe weekend. Nicola Adam
