    I've just found out that my boss is on the panel that awards special payments - guess who's submitting an application for a special payment? (this is on top of the overtime bill I'll more than likely submit for 105 - 140 hours).

    Is this a good thing? Is your boss an enabler or a blocker for this kind of thing?

    My boss knows how hard I work and he appreciates it; I reckon he'll argue for me to get it rather than put me off. He'd better otherwise I'll not return to this role when I come back from maternity leave!!!

  • Toto,
    Please call midwife-it sounds to me like possible pre-eclampsia. Those are typical signs.

    Hi Bunny,

    I've been inspired by our skincare chat yesterday! I got some goodies from Boots with my points and am going to give myself a proper facial tonight while hubbles is out as a reward for studying so hard. I'm going to cleanse and apply a nice deep clean mud face mask and moisturise then give myself a manicure and paint my nails for the first time in ages and (if I've got the energy) might just add a wee pedicure too! If I wasn't swelling out of all proportion Hubbles'd think I've got a bit on the side:rotfl:

    Toto,

    that's it bunny, you skirt about the edges as usual (not!) why don't you just tell her straight!

    Straight to the point! tha's why we loves ya!

    BTW Toto, it does sound troublesome so i hope you're with the midwife now and putting our minds at rest....
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....
    (it's part of my charm!)
