Julia finds that working from home is impossible due to all the tasks she has to do for her family. Meg tells her this is her 'mother鈥檚 load' - all the things that no-one else will do but that need to be done to keep the home running. Julia removes herself to the cafe to work but even there finds that it is not that easy to get her work done. A possible solution presents itself when she shares a table with a fellow freelancer, but is Julia taking advantage of him?
