My working procedure and situation hasn't really changed.
However, I won't be able to go into the capital until next week to buy things like Asian spices which I can't get out here in the sticks. And my hair is getting long...

Not in the way I work, what has really changed is that during the last three weeks or so I had much less work than usual. I’m booked for a longish project (11,000 words) for the end of this month but I’m slightly anxious that until then I’ll have pretty laid back days where the work will be scarce…

I think most freelance translators work at home, so no change there. I presume it's difficult for people who have children.

Obviously I now wear gloves to type and a face mask when talking on the phone. Anything else would be irresponsible.
But I’ve heard conflicting advice about whether anti-virus software will protect me when surfing the internet.

So before all this the helmet was simply to prevent translation from doing your head in?

...but because my partner is now working at home too, there is more music, more coffee, a bit more muttering and phone/video calling and breaks are more fun.

I am still working on my laptop and the internet connection is still the same. So, the only change is that I am not working at my office but at home. Is it a change? I don't think so!!

Nothing has changed. Working from home.

I usually work several hours from my studio or dining room table. In that sense, the covid19 pandemics have not changed any process in my working life.

But the avenue out of my window is a lot quieter for sure.

The delivery of hardcopies has become a difficult thing, I've had to set a protocol in order to receive and deliver documents.
