Wanted: some sort of office space for five weeks

This may or may not work in the world of coronavirus, but it's worth an ask.


I'm spending 5 weeks from the week starting 30 March writing a book. I was going to be based in a shared office-club place, but clearly that won't work. Writing from home will be difficult, due to distractions/other people etc.


So I was wondering: does anyone have a room/space/home office/shed/pod/anything of some sort I could rent? It would need to be one I could access in a non-shared way, ie to not have to have daily close contact with others, so it's not any more of a public health risk than working from home. I'd mainly be working fairly standard hours, but I'd need access beyond those, in case the deadline looms. And I'm based in SE5, so it would need to be somewhere I could cycle to fairly quickly.


But beyond that my needs are basic: just power, light, access to a loo and ideally wifi. Even wifi isn't a dealbreaker, as I could use a mifi dongle. A desk and chair would be good, though at a real push I could even bring them along. Price could be negotiable. It can be in a building with others, as long as the space is separate. I'd be quiet, nothing more than tapping laptop keys and the flick of book pages.


Any ideas welcome.


Thanks

    • Hi, I have a few filled and empty sharps bins to dispose of. My GP has filled out a form for the council and they've come to us while we were away, left two large sharps bins and no instructions. Would any of you know what to do? In the meantime I've gained another two empty sharps bins to add to my collection... Many thanks
    • I asked the same question in this forum a few months ago, as my wife wanted to learn to drive but was quite nervous after having had sessions with someone very stressful.  The recommendation we saw most often was Silvano, which she's been very happy with and who has helped her build her confidence.

    • door to door selling has been around for years. It is not illegal. 
    • They are not from 'rehabilitation schemes'. There are no such schemes that sell door-to-door. I have checked this myself with the probation services and been told by them that it's a scam. Trading Standards say: “Don’t deal with cold callers. Full stop. At the most innocent, they’re selling overpriced goods. At the more sinister end, they're assessing the potential for more serious crimes". It wouldn't hurt to report to the non-emergency number, 101. As Sandyman says, the police may use the information to direct future resources.
