I always think that working from home sounds like a good idea, but it's not. It's actually very boring. Although I have the same access to all the IT systems at home and I have the same mobile number, for some reason I find it much harder to fill my day with work unless people are emailing me things to do, which begs the question - What do I do when I'm in the office?
My reason for being at home today was to wait in for a delivery from B&Q of my new kitchen worktops. The delivery estimate was between 12:00 and 18:00 and at 14:10 they arrived, not bad going. The main concern with B&Q delivery seems to be not whether they arrive when they say they will but more whether they actually deliver what you ordered. All being well I think that part has gone ok. I have the right number of boxes of the right shapes, they're just so heavy that I can't actually get anywhere near opening them to see if it's the right one without danger of serious injury so I think I'm just going to trust B&Q that on this occasion they've got it right. Once I know my neighbours are at home I'll have a look in the box so that should I end up buried beneath one of them I can hammer on the wall and hope that someone comes to rescue me.

Fingers crossed no one at work reads the first paragraph of your post...
At least you got to watch the 147!
That's a very good point, if anyone from work is reading this - I do a lot of work when I'm in the office, as proved by the number of days when I'm often the first one in and the last to leave!
