Update

I’m half hoping to be told tomorrow that I’ve to work from home for the foreseeable – perhaps as long as 12 weeks.

This is a mixed blessing – I don’t much care for working from home, it’s boring and lonely, but I have not one, not two, but three ‘underlying conditions’ which might make coming down with Covid-19 seriously unpleasant. However bored I am, it has to be better than being in hospital on a respirator. Assuming that they even have a respirator for me and don’t decide I’m too fat. I wouldn’t put it past them.

In other news, I don’t think I have any other news. Smokey is ignoring me, and is curled up on her radiator hammock spark out.

Best practice, it is, but negative points for last-minute notification from the work people.

Well to be fair to them, they are part of the government and therefore were waiting to hear what Boris had to say. As soon as he said to work from home where possible, they were onto the case.

Some of my colleagues can't work from home due to needing to keep up a public service. It's them I'm thinking of.
