    Completely off topic but i have to put this somewhere and i can't face the other boards.

    DH got a phone call this afternoon from work to tell him he is suspended pending investigation of several discrepancies on start ups on Sunday night that have cost alot of money. He has to go into work tomorrow to pick up a letter detailing them and then go back to a meeting.

    DH works in a factory and is a quality technician. He has been there for 20 years.

    It is the same company that made me redundant last year. I feel sick with worry as if dh loses his job we are well and truly f***ed.

    Flying note dw on just to keep on topic !

    Quillion - you know where I am. Let me know if you need some HR input.

    Off to sort this TD out, and iron the bits that need doing.

    First.. DEEEEEEEEEEEEP BREATH!!!!!

    You have no further info at the moment so don't worry about it yet.. when you get the letter take it to a union rep.. OR a solicitor.. and see what they have to say.

    You have ALL of us behind you and we are ALL sending you positive calming vibes...

    Ok, maybe I should take my half an hour now. Thought I'd check the list, forgot there was a half hour 'to myself' in there :o I'm sort of having a problem in that I'm spending ages cleaning stuff and then when I look at the list, whatever I've done isn't on it! I washed the windows in the lounge = not on the list.

    I've been dusting for ages. I've even dusted four pictures on the wall - I'm surprised how yucky they were.

    Leaving hoovering until last but tired now. Hair appointment in the morning though! :j
