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’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 🤔January spends - £587.582 -
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 love hot weather 😎 Aside from that we have to believe things will be back to normal or the virus has won. Maybe we have learned to be more careful hygiene wise but we have to live our lives. One good thing is the flexible working and many of us can work from home 👍 I fear for all the companies that will go under because of this nightmare situation though 😩
