It’s a difficult time but we’re all in it together – and some people have taken to Twitter to see the funnier side of things!
Here are our top 3 tweets of the day, starting with a celebration of Nigella Lawson’s birthday by looking back at how she says the word ‘microwave’:

And finally a satisfying video worth sticking with – a man who is a master of his craft when it comes to cutting down trees:
"Do you own a chainsaw?"
"Indeed."
"Can you cut down this 2ft dia, 80ft pine tree for me, please?"
"Where is it?"
"At my house……….. but the house is just 3ft away to the left & a shed 1ft away to the right.
You need to miss both of them. ………Can you do it?
yes indeed.. pic.twitter.com/hfRNc7Qxre— Jon M. Taggart (@jonmtaggart) January 5, 2021
