I’ve just taken a call from a potential new client. He was desperate for me to go out and meet him in the next week. I pointed out that I’m self-isolating and not undertaking site visits and meetings at the moment. He told me that his wife and kids are self-isolating because they’re showing symptoms, but that he’s ‘still performing’.

He then told me about the problems that he’s having with the council, and which have resulted in him needing a meeting asap. He concluded this little tirade by telling me that all planners are ‘fucking wankers’. I pointed out that I’m a planner. The conversation ended shortly thereafter.

Just found out that my little brother, when he’s in the shower, doesn’t squeeze the shower gel / shampoo into his hand then rub it on his head… he squirts it straight on to the top of his head. Is he nuts?

(Context: He’s staying here for a bit, and I was like “Hey Max, we’re sure going through the shampoo quickly” and he replied “Sorry, probably me, it’s hard to see how much you squirt on your head”)

My kids are all using the lockdown as an opportunity to go “nopoo” , so shampoo consumption here has dropped to zero

Just had a knock at the door and couldn’t see anyone there when I went to look. Turns out my mother has left half a massive cake she’s just made in a tin on the doorstep. Cake day!

Yep. He was very clearly using the fact that he’s still working in those circumstances as a means to justify why I couldn’t legitimise staying at home, and why I must go out and meet him. Thankfully him calling me a fucking wanker meant that I didn’t have to argue that particular point with him.

Took today off as a random day of leave as work is a bit nuts and I’m getting a bit overwhelmed with things. Spent this morning clearing the garage and then going to just chill with the family this afternoon.

Had a lot of bad news come through in the past 24hrs regarding various family members which isn’t good at all. Some COVID and some serious so just feeling pretty down about things. My dad is now treating COVID patients which is mixed news to hear.
