    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Can I join in with everyone else and send Luc a huge, supportive hug.

    I think that maybe anyone involved in accountancy/finance should take the chance to retrain into working for Bankruptcy Practitioners/ Recievers or Benefit Fraud Investigation.....that appears to be the area with the jobs!

    I'm sure that it will all work out for you in the end Luc, however sh ite it all appears at the moment. Pepe x

    Luc, please take SOME advice from someone....check what other people are getting ie do they have to work their notice or are they getting their notice period paid.....what about your accrued holiday pay. Do you have employee benefits...all these things would have added up considerably over the next six months you know......
