Also the 'bus stop is on the wrong side of the road for our driving. Heating in house typically US. Gorgeous tree though, our dog would just knock it over Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couperman Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I could have sworn that street was in March, Cambridgeshire! No, definately December That reminds of a little puzzle, Identical twin sisters, both born in March but one has a birthday in December, One is twenty and the other is twenty too and one married the other, how is this possible? Obviously it loses something once written down! Kev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tina C Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 I am so dim I thought it was really yours! I was just thinking - wow Snowy's neck of the woods looks fantastic - no wonder she doesn't want to move to March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One is a vicar - or authorised to perfrom weddings Are you at work or have you just finshed Louise? I think you need a nap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 ahhhhh I get it now I need more than a nap Tina In the last 3 months I have had 9 days when I haven't had to come to work and some of it has been night shifts as well (I am including weekend days as well) Most days I have to be up at 5.30 and I don't get home till about 18.30 I am going to phone our personel lady this morning as we are all exhausted and I nearly fell asleep at the wheel last night going home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 That's not good enough Lousie - tell her that if you'd wanted to be exhausted, you'd have had babies! Ther is a limit on the number of hours you have to work, and I understand that overtime can't be made compulsory unless it says otherwise in your contract.... I may be corrected on this though, so don't quote me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina C Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 You definitely need more than a nap - you need a whole week off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Unfortunately the work has to be done I have opted out of the working time directive and we are all contracted to work overtime (apart from me) but I am described as all hours worked ie I have to do the number of hours required to get the job done Thing is at the moment I am doing approx 2 jobs - neither of them unfortunately is mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Sounds like you need to have a word Hon. Do you want to borrow my cattle prod? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Might be useful in more ways than one Clare I know I need to have a word because this is stretching right through Christmas/New Year and an end is nowhere in sight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Louise, when I worked for S&N, all us managers were contracted as 'hours as required', and it was a nightmare! You can't leave a pub without a manager, so if you were in a pub with a management team of two then, if the other was sick, or on holiday, then you had to be in 8:30am till whenever - 1am was normally the earliest closing time, so you'd be looking at a 2am bedtime at the earliest, then back in for 8:30am again! You have such a long drive home, you need to get it sorted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 you could have fun saving the bottles to make it thru the year and then recycle it after christmas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
