Someone else doing my job during furlough, but was furloughed because my job wasn't currently needed
As the Facilities person at my company, I was furloughed a few months ago due to there being no job for me to do as our offices were closed and everyone was working from home. Fair enough I thought. Recently, I was told that the company has no plans to officially open the offices. But then I read on the company intranet…

Furlough pay dropped from 100% to 80%
Hi, I was furloughed back in April. And then once again in June and then each month after that, and it looks like they will keep me on furlough for as long as they can.

LV Annual Travel Insurance - should I renew?
My renewal for my LV travel Insurance is in a few days. I think if I renew that I'm covered for coronavirus in the future as long as at the time of booking it's ok FCO-wise. I'm tempted to renew, even though I don't anticipate using it for some time; I suspect I won't otherwise get coronavirus cover for any future travel…

Gym Membership Question
I have been a member of my gym since December last year and they have agreed to allow freezing of membership once they have reopened.
