Re: Coronavirus

Not interested in testing, not interested in foreign holidays, not interested in the guesswork predicting a 3rd, 4th, 5th wave.

I just want to know when my wife & daughter can bugger off back to working in an office.

Both work for the local council and have been working from home since March 2020 . . and it's doing my damn head in
Council are saving money with empty offices, we're obviously using more gas/electric/water while they're at home.
Both use laptops & phones constantly talking to other workers & 'clients', any supposed 'confidentiality' is out of the window, I'm now well versed in the financial packages on offer, who to contact if Mr X needs an orthopedic bed, the different rates paid to 3rd party care service providers, and lots of other stuff that I really shouldn't be hearing.

There are also jobs I can't do around the house because of the disruption it would cause to their work . . anything that entails the power off is a no-no, as is anything that would make too much noise & mess.

Apart from that . . am I eligible for Business Internet, and is it cheaper than what I currently have
