  • jo I have emailed you with the latest from DH, though the redundancy board seem to have it taped.

    Hope everyone else is ok, Valli (aka Rehab Tesco) that is a really positive way to look at things, and maybe that job just wasn't the right thing, as Greenbee thought at the time?
    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x
