    BoJo can !!!!!! right off if he thinks he’s touching my industry again. We are one of the few more or less shut down during lockdown 1 to have not been affected subsequently. He’s already spoilt Christmas. !!!!!! with my business again and I’m not even sure I’ll be able to stop myself driving down there and asking him personally what the !!!!!! he thinks he’s doing.

    It's makes not one bit of difference to me. I will still be working from the dining table 🤣🤣🤣

    Other half can go to work but they won't have any customers or any parts to fix cars as the dealerships are shut 🤔

    Looks like his next stint of furlough will be sooner than we thought 😕

    🤣 re dining room table you need yourself a home office mate.

    I suspect you’re right about your oh. Not great at all.

    Over two hours since the announcement and I’m still smiling keep the coin rolling in haha. BoJo could be my hero after all. 😆

    We have considered turning the third bedroom into a home office but I don't really want to be shut away upstairs all day. From the dining table I can still see signs of life outside from the street and in the garden.

    I really can't see this lock down having any effect on our work either. The previous two have not.

    It should be a no spends day today.

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores. Breakfast was cereals, the other half has taken his packed lunch to work, I'm having a jacket potato with some veggie chilli for my lunch and dinner tonight is Shepherd's pie with a sweet potato and parsnip mash topping with some vegetables.

    Today's jobs include:
    • working from home
    • load of washing x 2 (1 x clothes 1 x bedding)
    • cleaning the windows
    • cleaning the kitchen
    • walking the dog x 2

    @RelievedSheff if it works for you that’s all that matters. Never considered anything but a potato mash for a shepherds pie - does it still crisp up a bit? Sounds amazing tbh.
