Good afternoon,
I'm sure I felt a sniff of spring in the air and with it a smattering of optimism.
So I thought I'd share the stories which will put a smile on anybody's face today, the adventures of two baby pygmy goats safely home after being stolen. 
And the man and puppy who have had a miraculous escape  from serious injury after a car flipped on its roof.
Meanwhile, calls are being made to prioritise Preston for the vaccine rollouts as the city has been harder-hit than many others.
Preston has found itself back in the top ten areas with the highest case rates in England in recent days.
As always, for all the latest news follow lep.co.uk
Wishing you all a happy Tuesday!
Kind regards, Nicola Adam
