Have just sent this message to my son, who has to work from home all over again:

"Don't forget, you and your workmates must stay at home and do it all on Zoom in order to protect each other. But don't worry: when work has finished you can go and get pissed with them for six hours in a crowded, sweaty pub, no masks, no distancing, and don't forget to shut all the pub windows because baby it's cold outside!"

But no fret. Sadge told us this morning that the new measures are "balanced and proportionate." All good then!
