ExSurveyor

Ian, the maddening thing is they can claim it all back at the end of April.

Not all staff have to be furloughed and the designation can be lifted anytime in the three month period but it can't be re applied. Not all staff have to be recalled at the same time. It would be possible to furlogh you first and recall you last. You could then go on SSP if your exile needed ti be extended. I have the same situation with one if my staff and that is how it is being dealt with. Where there is a will… .

Your employer can choose to furlogh you, the problem would be if they re-open before your 12 week exile. Does seem an unfair decision.

MM, I hope you did a working at heights assessment.

In line with government guidelines Matron made me go with her for a long walk, I have decided it isn't for me

Alan, The once a day exercise isn't compulsory.

If the property is empty and not in a chain with occupied properties involved, then sales can go ahead. Solicitors are doing simultaneous exchange and completion. I have one scheduled for Wednesday, one Friday and hopefully one on Monday. These are more dependant on buyers not panicking more than solicitors.

Fortunately for every idiot there are thousands of good Samaritans quietly helping complete strangers. Focus on the good works and don't give the idiots publicity.

Peters woodie is 1/12 the size of the real thing, but he does have two of them

Unless it doesn't work and you think it is working !! Hot tub chemicals are designed for small quantities in a large volume of water. Too little, doesn't work, too much, a potentially corrosive mixture. A correctly monitored hot tub is fine to use, just don't invite the neighbours round.

The grant will be classed as taxable income so we will be paying some of it back.

Not that far outside the box Ian

Worth thinking outside the box

Chillenden, near Canterbury.? I went past it two weeks ago on a lovely drive through the countryside on the way to a survey. Seems an age ago.

Thurne, because the sails look new

They should hold money in a client account or have a specific insurance policy to cover the money. That is good practice. Make all payments on a credit card to gain the extra protection.

I suggested that to Matron, her reply, "No, that is the path to anarchy and the breakdown of society"

Griff, Garage next on the list ? I have done two out of three sheds working on the marathon not a sprint principle.

Sorry JM, everyone also had the choice to let it go for the time being. Why attack an otherwise informative post at the moment, as you say, we all have family and friends to worry about now including every member at the BA, Go after it in the future if you want but for goodness sake call a truce now. My earlier post was wrong on the number of morgue spaces being created, Birmingham is to have 12000, yes twelve thousand, now compare that to a line in an information article.

I have to agree ChrisB. At a time when we are opening emergency hospitals to provide 10,000 beds and 4,000 morgue spaces in London, Birmingham and Manchester, with more to follow, is it really appropriate to keep on with this campaign. There will be a time in the future for that and many will support it. I would respecfully suggest now is not the time.

The blood donor service is desperate for donations, Here is how you can help the NHS. Phone 0300123 23 23 Register as a donor and give blood. If you are a donor already, see if you can give blood early.

The grant will be subject to a declaration that earnings have been reduced, that will enable a clawback against chancers, HMRC will see income declarations on the next return via Making tax digital that comes in to force for most self employed in April.unless it gets delayed again.

Thank you.

Griff, set up a garage on your drive, they are allowed to stay open.
