Island life during lockdown
"It's a very strange time, we would normally see hundreds of people coming over from all over the world, but with the lockdown, we are not taking any chances."
Clyde Grobler lives on Rathlin Island with his partner Sarah and children Freyja and Jago.
Rathlin is Northern Ireland's only inhabited off-shore island and it's famous for its seabirds.
Mr Grobler, originally from South Africa, met Armagh-born Sarah on the island and they moved there nine years ago.
The family are adjusting to life under lockdown, but their new normal is different again to that on the mainland.
