I have never done that in my whole working life, if I called in sick it was because I was sick.

My conscience won't let me go sick even when I am, unless I can barely hold my head up :-0 :-0 :-0

Not sure what the world is coming to one way or another, LG :-0

Have you got your lump hammer handy! It was a 4.40am wake up this morning :-0 I know you are supposed to need less sleep as you get older but its getting a bit silly now :-D :-D :-D

I agree I have known many people throwing sickies just for a couple of days off

There were too many before Covid, even now :-| :-| I suppose the majority will be able to claim sick pay, depending on their contracts

Evening YG, I agree with you there

Yes, grrr, she has a mobility scooter so can't have a standard car type taxi.

Evening everyone :-)

I think there is a fair number of people using Covid as an excuse to be off sick when they are not.

Cashing in on it :-|

Yes I agree, my friend found that out with a taxi firm she has used and trusted for years, not so much these days apparently they only do long distance and not round town :-|

Evening all, more bus troubles Maz :-|. Covid is a good excuse for lots of things these days

Hi Folks
Bus company short of staff and working roadworthy buses
Got a bus this morning it was slightly late ,this afternoon two were cancelled .its all down they said today .covid is a big umbrella for folk providing poor customer service .

Back from my trip out with very little result but hey ho such is life. I'm in for the day now and just about to change into my PJs because I can. :-D :-D :-D :-D

:-D :-D >morning all, I'm up with the larks but not for a lark :-( some medical stuff etc to do, and sort out the surgery. see you all later xx.

I am first today :-D :-D. Off to the belfry very soon so catch you all laterhave a good day

Usual sloppy inspection :-|. Nite nite,see you tomorrow sleep well :-D <3

I guess some people don't care about their surroundings, but as they applied for an exchange, surely the HA would have inspected and noticed it, so they couldn't have been up to the mark not to notice it :-|

I am off to bed now, LG, as I beat ZZzzz for early rising this morning ....... 5.15am :-| :-

Sleep well | :-) <3

I don't understand it either as the cracks are really bad and I wonder what could happen if the foundations subside even more. We have been assured that it is safe for now but the previous tenants must have realised it could have been more serious or did theyt. Too much time on phones and facebook methinks to notice anything about the house.

Oh that's naughty of them. Why the hell didn't they get it sorted while they lived there. It is the HA;s responsibility, although I guess they would have needed to decorate the rooms afterwards.

I bet it is ,we also have a structural crack right down the outside wall which has cracked the plaster in 2 rooms :-|. We had a surveyor come to see it and they are saying that the foundations on the back corner of the house will need underpinning. We are now waiting for the HA insurance to pay up to get it sorted. The previous tenants had not reported it and hid it with their furniture so we did not notice it.

I bet its not as bad as mine :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
