    Morning all!

    Me and OH watched the film 'World Trade Centre' the other night and it was truely awful - made me a blubbering wreck (the film itself was really well made though)!

    Felling a bit better today - back at work so trying to get loads done but just not in the right frame of mind! Have to though as I'm out of the office at a conference forhalf of next week and I have an all day meeting on Friday :eek:

    I have a box of stuff too - mostly because I wouldnt want my parents to have to pay off my debts or worry about my phone contracts if I die! Its sensible really! :D

    Morning all. Sleepy this morning! Had a really good run last night - after the buzz wore off I was so tired and was in bed just after 9. Didn't have a brilliant sleep, weird dreams..

    9/11 - I was on holiday in Gran Canaria with then boyfriend, we were walking along the beach and noticed that everyone at the beach-side bars was glued to the TV.. couldn't really work out what was going on until we got back to the hotel and put the news on. Few panicky days waiting to hear about friends who were there at the time.

    Late start for me this morning, going straight out instead of going to the office first.

    This afternoon I am going with my daughter to her DLA appeal, so feeling a bit nervous about that!

    Can't find any info on internet Pepe. Rang Jobcentreplus in Derby who are co-organising it and he couldn't tell me much either. 40 minutes from here. Had a look at the vacancies advertised an nothing seems suitable.

    tenmah - most people win on appeal - its something like over 70% isnt it!

    Anyway if you need any more advice there are some very helpful peeps on the benefits board (and some idiots but isnt that life ;))

    Trouble is with these 'Recruitment Days' is finding someone who is actually running it. I know that most of these things at our local hosp are run by an Agency in conjunction with Jobcentre. Try ringing the Personnel Dept at the Royal Derby?....or your local paper?

    We've always got jobs at our sister Co......one of the Countrys biggest Debt Collectors!......maybe thats why our group is so successful, sell cheap chickens and collect debts! Its a growing business.
