Social media this week has been full of bittersweet memories of this time last year, when we had no real idea of just how big this coronavirus was about to become in our lives. But it has also kept us entertained, amused and moved.
As we’re talking about social media, I want to encourage you to follow us on all the platforms you use. You’ll see the best from Global Comment in your feeds. Find us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest.
Now, here are our favourite picks from everywhere else this week:

Yesterday evening I received my Covid-19 vaccine. Then I went to a frozen lake to dance Bhangra on it for joy, hope and positivity, which I'm forwarding across Canada and beyond for everyone's health and wellbeing. pic.twitter.com/8BS0N7zVZK

Welcome to March. We’ve had a stern chat with last March who has assured us this March will be much less, how shall we say, horrific. So keep the masks on, keep diving into hedges to avoid people, you know the drill, and let’s trundle our way towards a lovely Summer. As you were.
