During the first lockdown and finding myself working from home, I used the dining table which was far from ideal for everyone. Piles of paper work and a laptop computer are not attractive. A spare 3 square metres on the landing under the loft hatch proved an ideal space and in an unusual burst of DIY enthusiasm, I created a workstation for less than £100 and in just a few hours.
The dining table is now free of dad’s clutter and I am away from the ‘noise’ that goes with that busy thoroughfare. Usefully, I’m also away from the TV and the fridge which are both easy sources of distraction.
