Hello All
RTL, I do hope your Grandson makes a good recovery. I am very sorry that you are having great difficulty sleeping and after your mishap on the stairs, you sound very exhausted.
Employers were supposed to care about staff welfare, but I saw little of it and you really do have my deepest sympathy.
I was falling asleep at work and they had me in the Office threatening me with dismissal if I couldn't keep up, but I was exhausted, so I wrote asking for ill-health retirement which was acknowledged by letter.
Their own Occ Health G.P., listened to me and sent me for a brain scan and then they could see why I had this terrible trouble.
After my scan they said I was incapable and sacked me whilst awaiting a Medical Opinion (in breach of their formal Pension procedure Rules).
My Trade Union took them to the Appeal Panel and my employer lost.
Louisa, I hope your husband's eye operation is successful.
Viktoria, I hope all is working as it should and settling nicely.
Yes, Gillg has more sun and milder weather, than Roobarb's chilly coastal location where bracing winds blow in!
I seem to recall Bournemouth on the South-coast had palm trees or similar?
