And then, do you know what I've also done, Izzy?
I've occasionally tried to do working from home in a pub.
Has anyone done this, work from home people?
You ever try, or maybe I'll go to a pub during the day.
That's a disaster for a whole range of reasons.
It's a nice place if you want to answer emails surrounded by silent men who move in slow motion.
And the other scary thing is in a pub at the daytime, at any point, in the toilets, someone's going through the unimaginable.
