Getting a 100.......

I just got my first rail vouchers. 90p compensation for ED to LB being cancelled. I thought it would have at least covered the cost of the bus journey but what do I know?

Yes they are obliged to keep her job open. They should take on a temp. They are cutting costs. Simple as that.

My assistant is due off in a few weeks.She could take a year off but might decide not to come back. My employers seem to think that enough of her work can be distributed elsewhere so a replacement isn't required. I know what these people are like (the distributionees). They will do f all. It's taken me several years in this job to get things working more or less professionally. Now I see that work going down the pan. I'm tempted to look for other employment but given ageism is a reality I don't know if I should even try. Given an important aspect of my salary is a bonus based on KPI's and I can see those targets not being met, what should I do? I'm not expecting a definitive answer but if anyone has had a similar experience I'd love to hear about it.

Other channels exist because of adverts. I've never watched Netflix or Amazon Prime but I guess they have radio stations as well and local TV news.....or maybe not. By the way Ross is on ITV not BBC.

I am RD and promise to see the season through including wet Tuesday's in Stoke.......

What's that expression about a gifthorse?

At least there are obviously places where they do let it 'settle'. My limited experience is that barstaff here just fill up the glass.

I can't actually remember ever stealing anything material. I was though a co-conspirator with a friend when he kneeled down as if to tie his lace and broke a little capsule which contained a stink bomb in Quinnsworth. Obviously none of you realise how many Our Fathers or Hail Mary?s you might get as a sentence once you confessed to your crime. Bloody pagans....

A big picture of a fox and a dog so people will know the difference.

Nero Nero vanished 5 years later. When did the cinema open? His last post suggests he may have been got at or did he just flee?

I thought from the title this thread was about Rosy using her nice bike as she missed a connection to/from West Norwood. A missed connection appears to mean something else altogether. Where have I been?

And you're asking DtR because of his sense of humour?

Threads on 98.

What about getting rid of your table? It would remove the whole question of table manners.
