Gordon has now taken a thinly-veiled dig at the locals after a fresh bunch of asparagus was left on his doorstep with a handwritten note attached.

While a third is thought to have written: "Wealthy second homers think making a few quid means they are immune from the virus and any rules. They are arrogant at the best of times, this has shown how bad some of them are."
