On the couch watching A Touch Of Frost on the TV. My OH and I were rowing this evening and tonight and I have no doubt it’s down to being cooped up together at my place for the last week.

Heading off to bed very shortly...

Far from the only house having that, myself and OH watch different things and do our own thing for a good part of the day. I am extremely bad at this staying at home lark but holding so far. It'll be ok, just make sure to have plenty of your own time and plan time together a little..

Good morning all, I love watching cities transition from night to day and my 23rd floor perch is perfect for that.

This is my normal routine, come to a hotel in this city and work for a few days or a few weeks, but this time it feels totally totally different, might have something to do with the fact that the company keeps sending me stuff about our new Contagious Disease Kit and Universal Biohazard Kit, firstly to review and then to implement. Or maybe it’s the fact that I’m now expected to meet a medical team prior to being allowed near the aircraft for temperature checking. This country only has less than 300 cases, but they are reacting very seriously to it.

Almost time to go get my rationed breakfast

Nothing very exciting, hard boiled eggs, yoghurt and bananas, the selection is bigger than this but I have no interest in cold meats or breads that are sitting around.

Having boiled eggs for breakfast, just decided that, thanks smurf.
Another beautiful sunny but cold morning.
I have to go look at the office building work before the builders come in this morning, it's virtually finished but I can't open it yet I'm told, don't fully know why, but I have just to check on a few final fittings.
Quiet day ahead apart from that, usual bit of work and retreat at times.
Have a good day all, weekend nearly here.

Morning all,

It's a beautiful looking morning outside, not a cloud in the sky but temp. is still sub zero -0.2C

Had to break ice on the rain barrel to have a wash

We're still having considerable difficulty with the social distancing too

In bed. Self isolation day 2. No symptoms myself. Housemate has a horrendous cough, so we're all stuck here for 14 days.

On the couch as usual. Just finished the Thailand job and waiting for assignments on the Irish job while watching Lost Girls on Netflix.

Mum was putting pressure on me to come home and when I told my brother that today, he flipped out. He understands that me self-isolating here is safer than 17+ hours travel.

Probably Dublin has forgotten about us as usual or we just haven't done any testing yet!

Homeside and bollixed after a very busy week in work. I went out for a walk but came home after half an hour, didn't realise how tired I was until then. I'm off til Monday now and won't be doing much apart from a supply run or two for my family. Thanks also to Black Forest for the links the other day, I will be checking them out today.

Some kindly folk in Bargain Alerts have posted about a few deals some of ye working from home may be interested in to stave off boredom.
3 months subscription to movie streaming service MUBI for only €1. It's usually €10 a month so a great bargain, it's more for arty and foreign movies though. https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2058063066

Play Football Manager 2020 free for one week. The Liverpool fans here could play it to guarantee a league win for yizzersleves this season. :P https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2058062759

And finally a reminder the Disney Plus launches this Tuesday, full content list here. https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/tv/disney-plus-uk-content-every-17899418

Thinking of hitting the bed early, can't be arsed drinking my beer. Been trying to organise grocery shop delivery but there are no slots available with any of the companies. Oh well, will just have to get himself to go out and get stuff when supplies start to dwindle.
