@Navigator Basecamp invite on the way.

Hi @GarethM & good to see your first post. Top tunes there. I'm a big fan of Pomodoro too, really helps to focus.

Morning all. We’re all on lockdown now so thinking of ways to keep spirits up. My partner Claire has done a COVID19 playlist on Spotify. Link below. Can you think if any songs that should be on there too? What are you doing to keep spirits up? …

I'd set teach session up as a separate meeting, eg: Sam maths at 1pm Tom English 2pm etc When you set up a meeting you'll get a different URL that can be sent to the relevant person. Zoom will also create a schedule so it's easy to switch be…

I'm setting up a Basecamp project this morning and will invite you all to it so watch out for the email and check your spam folder if you haven't seen it by lunch. If you're not in our Basecamp account already I'll use the email address you register…

Hi @mrswhit13 Motivation is a big challenge, especially when there are so many distractions at home. I have found that setting myself small targets throughout the day with a reward helps. I know it makes me sound like a puppy but I'll do anything fo…

There's a really good thing on LInkedIN called #togetherathome It was started by Chris Martin (yes, that one). He did a real time request video. Like him or not, it was good.

I've made my baguette (the last fresh bread in Waitrose on Monday) last far longer than normal and so have a nice lunch to look forward to today!

OK, I'll see who else wants to join after the Howwow tomorrow and then I'll set it up.

Just in case.... The dedicated HMRC helpline for businesses and individuals who are having difficulty paying their taxes due to the current Coronavirus outbreak is now up and running. Further information on this can be found at https://www.gov.u…
