someone in my office was confirmed as having it. We had an email sent around this morning and now we are all to work from home.

Sure she will understand you have a day off sounds like you need and deserve it xCoronavirus made me selfish...?
I am that bloody tired and drained from all this i am using my day off tomorrow to just sleep and be on my own. I usually spend my days off with my mum who is in her 70's but i am staying home as she is self isolating under government advice. If i go i would have to take 2 buses as i dont drive but i dont want to risk it. Yes i do bus it to work but i dont want to make extra journeys unless i can help it. But then that makes me feel selfish leaving my mum on her own....but she needs to stay in for her own safety and if i visited and have the virus but didnt realise and then she became sick i would never forgive myself EVER.....but then shes on her own.....but i cant afford to get sick......I am exhausted though and i feel selfish for thinking of myself!!!
Sorry if not making sense

Considering all the government are offering the self employed is £94 per week, you will probably find the tradesmen eager to work (provided we aren’t in lockdown).
I don’t have that but I’ve had an Opti bike, treadmill and weights and they’ve all worked perfectly well, so from experience, I’d say it’s a good brandI'm thinking of buying a cross trainer.

just gonna day I’ve had number of these cheaper ones over the years and the seats are ridiculously uncomfortable!! To the point where they ended up just sitting in the spare room and eventually being taken to charity. Just my experience. they can also be very loud and squeaky sometimesI'm thinking of buying a cross trainer.

do you know how poorly they are? Have they been hospitalised? I wish the government would share some figures , it would be good to know the number who have recovered. I wish you good health
Ah thanks that's good to know, I've got low expectations from a cheaper brand, but it must last a year.I don’t have that but I’ve had an Opti bike, treadmill and weights and they’ve all worked perfectly well, so from experience, I’d say it’s a good brand
Yeah I'm not imagining it to be amazing and quote noisy and wobbly. I can't decide between 100-300 ones and I looked up how much the technogym ones that the gym have and they're 11.5k
. So I won't be getting one of those. I imagine the Argos ones are all of similar quality. To be honest it'll be for 10 mins bursts daily so maybe it'll be ok 
don't want to be wasteful but can't spend much eitherAll they told us was that they were ok but quite poorly and at home now. I would imagine to be tested they would’ve had to have been pretty poorly. Really hitting home how scary this all is now.
Everything has changed for us this week. My daughter is only 16 months old so doesn’t understand why but she’s definitely noticed. Baby groups all cancelled, no meeting up with friends, no going to the library, no appointments (we tend to have a lot). Her dad works away and it looks unlikely that he’ll be able to visit within the next few months which is upsetting for everyone
One little thing that I’ll find difficult is not being able to go out for breakfast. We don’t have much money so it’s a small weekly treat to get a £6 breakfast on a Sunday. My daughter loves people watching and trying to get attention from strangers while eating her toast, so it makes me sad to think this won’t be happening for months
She’s a very sociable child so this week has been hard and it’s a struggle to imagine it going on and on. I do worry about the effect it may have on her as she’s so young

I was in the process of setting up a candle and home fragrance company to sell at local craft fairs - tea lights, wax melts etc. Have literally spent weeks making stock, have designed logos and got all the legal compliance in place, all I need now is insurance.
But it's all gone tits up for now. Might look at selling online, maybe. At least I still have my actual job (for now) but this had turned into quite a passion.
Saying that, I've still spent hours today making stock and boxing/labelling - it's keeping me calm right now.

We're getting our floor fitted much sooner, because our contractor got loads of cancellations. It has to be done plus he needs money too.
I've been meaning to get one. I wouldn't buy the cheapest one.I'm thinking of buying a cross trainer.

I actually saw loads of hand sanitiser in a local shop. 6 quid for a small bottle
Sports direct have no cross trainers in stock. I carefully researched one bought it only to get a cancellation email 10 minutes later.
Bought two more then they were each cancelled.
Ended up panic buying one from eBay for 330
. That's what I'd spend for the whole gym, classes, sauna and pool for 9 months. So I've probably single handedly ended this pandemics and I'll be left with a stupidly expensive clothes hanger

So I've probably single handedly ended this pandemics and I'll be left with a stupidly expensive clothes hanger I desperately need to get a face moisturiser ive completely run out and the one I use is on offer in Superdrug. Their delivery times are so slow now with all this. I feel really nervous about going in the shop, I feel like people will judge what you buy now. To me it’s an essential though, probably not to other people but I do suffer with my skin. I feel like I need to buy something else with it to make it look like I really needed it. Weird huh. This is just causing stupid anxiety for things you wouldn’t think twice about.
Second thoughts I don’t think I’m going to go the anxiety will kill me and maybe I’ll just try ordering

Since I’ll be indoors a lot more, I’ve bought a set of weights to exercise with from Amazon. When I went to order, it said ‘in stock 3 April’ and I thought that’s okay. Then after I ordered it told me to expect my items on 7 May (this was on Prime)!
Not complaining because there’s so much more important things, just genuinely shocked that it’s expected to take 6 weeks
The real kicker is that I planned to buy weights way before this all happened. I used to be a bit of a compulsive shopper so now I try putting buying things off to make sure I really want them. At least I’ll really value them when they finally arrive

I think it’s better for you that she is so young. I have a 10 year old that has had to give up all of these things and it’s a struggle for her.
