    shouldn't think so no.... I guess we've been put on notice that 'some of our jobs are in jeopardy', but we could find ourselves in the spikey chair meeting with no prior warning.

    Yes, it is a bit carp. As for plan B, I don't have one. I emailed 'Easyway' to see if they wanted trainee therapists, but they aint taking anyone on for at least 18 months. Apart from that, I guess I'll go through all my contacts, then give it all up and go and work for Sir William :rotfl:

    had the obligatory vivid scary dream though. The dream was a recurrent one, I'm staying in a hotel, a place with loads of identical corridors and doors and keep losing my way to my room. The lift always has something dodgy about it, either the door doesn't shut properly or it jolts and jumps all the way to the next floor or it travels in a diagonal direction :confused:. Last night's dream had me bypassing the lift cos I didn't enjoy the first trip in it so took the stairs, got lost then on one of the staircases was a push bike that I had to clamber over with my luggage. There has to be a message in there somewhere? I'm lost, can't find my way but trying to, the journey is rocky and there are lots of obstacles.....sound familar :rolleyes: :doh:

    You are strange & scary but we love you :p

    Seriously tho, think there's a lot to be said for the dreams you have when you're trying to sort your head out.

    Take it easy, honey :)

    Thanks RA, that makes sense huh :rolleyes:

    Just seems that the 'wrong' voice overpowers everyone else plus gets in the way of rational thinking :confused:
