Things I don't understand about self isolation - the funny stuff
« on: Monday 30 March 20 15:59 BST (UK) »
1) Why is it that I when I've never heard from anyone all day, the minute I pick up my paint brushes I get three texts or WhatsApps?

2) Why have I got so many dusters?

3) Why do I feel guilty if I'm not doing something productive?
