It’s total rubbish not seeing family. I’ve missed my dd and gc like mad. I need her to see me in real life as she doesn’t believe I am improving as much as I’m telling her 😏 At least I’m getting to see my ds as we’re I a bubble as he lives alone.Teir 4 is rubbish too. We’ve been in tier 3 now for what seems forever....I suspect we will be following you to tier 4 as cases are rising.
I hope you get your laptop working soon. That was prompt service 👍
Take care and keep plodding 👍January spends - £587.586 -

I am not at my best it has to be said.
My anxiety is ramping up & I do not feel I have a break.

Sorry to hear you’re not at your best. Blooming tier restrictions not the best for MH, they don’t take that into consideration unfortunately ☹️ Hope you’ve got the laptop sorted, if not still happy to help.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5

So you need to unbox it, switch it on and follow what it asks you to do. As others have said you’ll need your internet password to hand. Should be pretty straightforward from there. I assume you’ve got the Office 365 disc for excel?I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6
