    It must have been very strange at work. Like you say I suspect things are changed forever.
    Hope your tv went to the tip and you have room in your cupboards again. How will the new rules affect you looking after the gks.....created a lot of unanswered questions.....

I did my parents shopping again today and left it on the doorstep , my niece their granddaughter is being her support bubble.My mum and dad are adamant that I help my DD so that's how we are going .

    Our firm has announced from next week they're upping the 30% workforce limit  allowed in the office as there are those who have asked to go in.  It's not mandatory though.  Boss and I are quite happy to WFH for the foreseeable future .....😀

    Just caught up on your diary and it's all sounding positive 😊I really wish I had the sort of job I could do from home, that would suit me really well at the moment. I think a lot of companies are going to be sticking with this from now on

    I’d like to work from home too - as long as it didn’t involve computers 😂😂😂😂 Dont know how you do it 🤔😳🤪
    It makes sense to change your bubble to your dd....you must feel very torn. I should be having my gks here in a couple of weeks as dd is struggling with childcare that week.....no idea what going to happen now.....hopefully it’ll go back to the new normal before then 🤔

    My DGS had his football game cancelled tomorrow because of the local lockdown, He asked his mum to phone Boris Johnson and tell him he was a silly man 😂.
    I have hid mostly inside today but did venture in the sun for 30 mins , couldn't stand Amy longer.
