Nearly back in geoffj towers after 6 months of work and I'm planning my office. I'm going for the shabby chic look as I'm now officially skint, but what are the home office essentials toys that everyone should have.

All sensible and ridiculous answers considered 😆

Headphones, desk with lamp, pinboard, whiteboard, phone, computer with big sign above saying "NO PORN".

That's all I've got and it works for me.

biscuit tin

Large Kleenex dispenser

A decent desk chair – just because you are working at home doesn't mean that your back doesn't need the same amount of support from a desk chair that you might get in an office.

agree on a desk/chair combo that allows you to sit comfortably and without causing aches and pains int he long term.

if you live with other people a door you can close behind you and be 'at work' is handy.

Decent chair is the most important thing. I got a cheapo slide-out keyboard/mouse tray from ikea that works really well too. And a footrest is surprisingly good.

Nekkid ladies. If you can't get real, settle for posters.
