    So sorry to hear that Froggy

    Continue to hold your head high. If it does effect you you know you can get through this. As Tilly says, you have time to prepare, plan and organised and we all know how good you are at that

    Sorry to hear your job news, I always think that the people that start back-stabbing, are the ones that are worried about their jobs. I also like watching the people that did nothing, suddently start working

    Was there justice in the world last night :)

    sorry to hear your redundancy news, at least you have a while to digest and start looking elsewhere.

    I know its little comfort but everytime we've faced redundancy the longest notice we had is 4 weeks the shortest 2 days!!

    Hi ATT

    Thanks for popping by.. Yes I am still here, sorry for the lack of news.. The last week has been very busy at work.. My back is killing me again, so trying to take it easy for a few days..

    Still the same at work.. Keeping my head down, not asking too many questions.. quite demoralising to have to go through this again..

    On a more positive note, I am off next month to see a very good friend up North.. This is cheering me up no end.. Very much looking forward to it.. Juts have to book the flights..

    Hope you are well?

    Hi Froggy, good to hear from you and certainly no need to apologises, I'm the world's worst poster and only seem to manage once or twice a month where I have a bit of a postathon :D

    Sorry to hear your back is bad again, I seem to recall you having a number of therapy sessions a while back so I hope things improve soon

    Great news re meeting up with your friend, that will do you good!

    I think I was in your neck of the woods a couple of weeks ago, was just passing through the major train station there on my way elsewhere, it's a journey I do once in a blue moon (aka once every two years or so!) so wondered if I might see very tall Frenchman passing by ;) I couldn't believe how much the station has changed - amazing!

    I'm good thanks, a nit of a tight month having 'forgotten' that I hadn't paid for a holiday in full so an extra £150 to find on checkout :o

    Right, must get going, still not packed and away for work very soon!

    Regards
