  • Have just said goodbye to Australians relatives they are going home today , sad to see them go early but needs must. I know they will be relieved to take off and get home to their family.

  • It's time the shops put away the trolleys and just allowed one basket per person as well as limiting amounts. I think most of us are putting finances on a back burner right now Nicnak, we have bigger fish to fry.


    The trouble is SA that there are four adults in my house and we buy a lot of food every week, not for stockpiling but because we need a lot :(.

    Morning , working from home for the foreseeable, logged on and in action. 

    Any tips on home working , feel free to share . Sun Addict has already given me a couple. I find my chair very uncomfortable so going to try and sort that today . The road outside seems fairly busy with cars . 
    Everyone have a good day.

  • Give yourself set working hours, try and remove distractions from your immediate working area and give yourself regular breaks. Reward yourself for working well :).
