Hi Nik, I do alternate shifts, one week lates, one week earlies but always work up to 8pm on a Weds (youth mentoring). Therefore I will be on earlies again next week. It would be great to finally meet some of you all. I did check out ED on Facebook but didnt recognise any names... I am Giddy Gecko on there too so alas you can find me & laugh at me cool pic.


Cheers GG x

Welcome back Nikster!!! Glad to hear the hols were good.


Okay -


I can do (M) 11th or (F) 15th next week. My vote is for Monday evening (11th) at 7pm at The Rye. Any good?


I'm on facebook 2. Giddy I'll send you an invite - this way hopefully we'll recognise each other rather than wander around the pub aimlessly... :)

hmmmmmmm thats odd maybe I exist under my real name although I changed my screen name to giddy gecko..... try Liz Ray-Dobson, still waiting for your invite on face, although if you see my pic there I am bodyboarding in Australia & I have no intentions of wearing a wet suit to the pub or bringing my board. Monday night is good for me @ The Rye, so hopefully see you all there.


Cheers GG xx

I am now struck by a flu like bug but seeing the Dr 2moro who will hopefully give me loads of drugs to make me human again then I will be able to come & out play on Monday, I will not however be wearing a wetsuit & carrying a bodyboard as per my facebook piccy. Jeans with smart casual shirt, short darm semi spiked hair & bags under my eyes, that will be me.


Cheers GG

OOoh!


I finished work early today and ended up having a deink with Mumra and some work mates in the Rye Hotel which led me to thinking should I reserve an area for Monday.....I did by the way, so there will be a space from 7pm reserved for Rainbow drinks (thought it might help us recognise each other!)


See you Monday and enjoy the sunshine,


Nikster x

    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
    • Exactly - a snap election will make things even worse. Jazzer - say you get a 'new' administration tomorrow, you're still left with the same treasury, the same civil servants, the same OBR, the same think-tanks and advisors (many labour advisors are cross-party, Gauke for eg). The options are the same, no matter who's in power. Labour hasn't even changed the Tories' fiscal rules - the parties are virtually economically aligned these days.  But Reeves made a mistake in trying too hard, too early to make some seismic changes in her first budget as a big 'we're here and we're going to fix this mess, Labour to the rescue' kind of thing . They shone such a big light on the black hole that their only option was to try to fix it overnight. It was a comms clusterfuck.  They'd perhaps have done better sticking to Sunak's quiet, cautious approach, but they knew the gullible public was expecting an 24-hour turnaround miracle.  The NIC hikes are a disaster, I think they'll be reversed soon and enough and they'll keep trying till they find something that sticks.
