A selection of people's last 'normal' photos

We asked you for the last “regular” image you had on your phone, and hundreds of you replied.

Our wedding event – Tom Archer

We invested two years planning our wedding in Austria.

I drove out through France and Germany in a campervan, with the world closing down around me, not understanding if we might go on with it.

On the Friday night as our visitors arrived, Austria revealed they would be shutting down from Sunday. On Saturday 14 March we wed, and on the Sunday we were escorted from the resort back to the airport.

We had two or three visitors who didn’t make it to the wedding, however it was a definitely incredible day. Taking a look at the photos now is absolutely overwhelming.

Two of my mates were taking the campervan back. They got as far as Germany, and then Germany locked the borders. They left it there and flew house.

So the campervan with the wedding cake inside is still in a Munich parking lot.

I can’t wait to see him once again.

I can not wait until I stroll them to school once again.

It was a friend’s 50 th birthday event in Ascot on Saturday 14 March.

It was a fantastic night commemorating with special buddies. We had an Amy Winehouse impersonator and we danced up until the early hours.

What is so unusual is we were all going over coronavirus throughout the night, however partying still without a care on the planet.

At that time, no one actually understood anyone who had actually had it and we had not become aware of anything in the area.

About five to seven days later on, 17 people from the celebration ended up being bed-ridden and badly poorly with all the traditional Covid-19 signs.

All 17 of us fell ill within days of each other and have actually taken six weeks to get back to health. Not one people knew that we had actually been in contact with anyone with symptoms prior to the p
