5. CCTV lockdown rule breakers
At the very beginning of lockdown in March, it shocked our readers to see four Glaswegians caught on a helicopter camera not abiding by social distancing and drinking in Pollock Park. They were fined for drinking by Police Scotland. A day later and the group could have been penalised for breaching social distancing regulations, which were not yet in force. Photo: Police Scotland

6. Lockdown-relatable book
When the virus struck, Scottish author Peter May's novel ‘Lockdown’, initially rejected for being too ridiculous, was published in April. It only took a killer virus causing a global shutdown to make this novel sound like something ripped straight from the daily news reports. Photo: na

7. Heaving homeware queues
As soon as some homeware stores opened in April as we saw parts of lockdown ease, queues lined the car park outside B&Q’s Aberdeen. Many of us were shocked to see the queues we are now well-accustomed to. Photo: Angus Marshall

8. Lockdown with man's best friend
In April, Chris Lewis, former British Paratrooper caught our attention with these iconic pictures of him and his dog, Jet, isolating on the small, uninhabited Shetland island, Hildasay, after becoming stranded there since lockdown. Photo: N/A
