I think I’ve spent too many days on my own now... I’m starting to question everything!
When something comes in through my letterbox I wonder if it is safe. I think I’m being paranoid, but I have been stashing them away for a few days before opening them to mitigate any risk. (I’ve also been wiping down food packaging wherever possible).
Am I losing the plot? Or is this sensible?

We have a computer arriving from Shanghai, on Monday. We thought it was from our local Apple store!

Why would it come from an Apple store. Among other things they’ve been shut for weeks. They also won’t carry stock to be delivered to peoples homes. It would be massively inefficient.

Plus Shanghai’s likely to be a lot safer than the UK now.

I reckon Royal Mail are probably doing it for us as a parcel my DM posted to me ten days ago still hasn't arrived. It must be in isolation. Grin
