| Just because you *can* leave your sofa, doesn't mean you have to...
You might have all sorts of out-and-about, restaurant, bar, beer garden or hairdresser plans for 4 July onwards: we've outlined the major changes planned to lockdown rules from 4 July here.
But if you're not feeling quite ready to hit the city - or you've just developed a real taste for the glorious trifecta of sofa, takeaway, and the occasional balcony BBQ - we've also got you covered.
Immerse yourself in London-from-afar, with the help of our YouTube channel (a 200 video-strong love letter to London) - or check out our Netflix and Amazon playlists for films with London in a starring role.
Fire up the grill for London's best DIY cheeseburger kits from some of the city's best burgerslingers, including Patty + Bun and Truffle. Order by the bottle or box from London's best wine delivery services, virtuously helping your favourite bars, bottleshops and London-based wineries stay afloat by bulk-buying Pet Nat. And for those stay-at-home summer evening negronis, you can stock up on some of the city's best gins for delivery.
Be prepared to get messy with one of London's best DIY dessert kits: choose between caramel-covered doughnuts, intricate chocolate-tahini babkas, and cheesecakes with as much topping as cake. And you can make the morning after all this excess a lot more enjoyable by stocking up on breakfast necessities from London's best bakery delivery services - think pillowy Ghanaian sweet bread for bacon sandwiches, enormous, chewy pretzels for low-effort carb-loading, salt beef bagels or Marmite and cheese pastries.
So kick back, carb up, and do lockdown-easing on your own terms.
