    Poor OH Wonky image He def needs a visit to the docs image I can do a hard stare too..... and you should never say no to Panda image

    Thanks all for your comments ..... Fairy, I found myself out of work at the beginning of Feb and have been looking ever since image I do have a couple more interviews next week though ...... image

    Lovely sunshine here, am off out for lunch with a friend of mine to a lovely little place called The Secret Garden ...... which I remembered this morning is attached to a GC image

    Haha Panda! His arm is firmly wrentched behind his back and he's on fun ban until submission! image think he's coming round!

    I'm looking for work too Panda, although I have a job at the moment I only expect it to last another week at best and am miserable in it anyway! Truth be told I'm glad to be able to be home and look after OH at the moment anyway! But the financial security is a worry, I understand if you ever want to chat image

    Hearing of dodgy weather in the east Anglia region again! image is it cuz I put shorts on?? image

    My biggest issue Wonky is that the job centre don't seem to understand that I need to pay my mortgage therefore I can't just get any old job image

    So, following a lovely relaxing lunch with my friend we might have hit the GC image and I might have found that some plants have followed me home image No sticky labels, they just leapt into the back of the car image image That's all my bingo winnings gone now image

    I think Dove is scaremongering image Although, in Essex I guess I'm not quite East Anglia so maybe it will avoid us image image

    Ah Runny! You tempted fate! Umbrella means you need shade, shade equals cloud..... And we all know what comes next!!! image

    That's a tough position Panda! And the job centre don't care, they just need to reduce numbers! They couldn't care if you signed off and sign on again the next day, as long as the figures were lower briefly! 

    Glad plant therapy has helped the frustrations!

    Had you thought about doing something self employed? That's how the government reduced the unemployment figures really! You get so much help, rent, working tax.....just a thought!? I know my friend only had to teach about three yoga classes a week! And got so much additional help!

    On the bright side, gave me a reason to be glad I don't own my home I guess! image

    Mind you I'm going to attempt to avoid signing on, not that I have an issue with it but I can do any job, fairly low rent so can start from bottom and work up.

    Anyway, good luck! I'm sure your qualities and abilities will shine through and the right position or option will present itself! image

    Thanks Wonky image Self employment not for me, would prefer the security of being someone's employee image

  • 4thPanda4thPanda Posts: 4,145

    Oooo, thanks Runny image image
