    That is quite mean, making you work it back.

    We rarely finish early, but i do try and let the staff go an hour early or come in an hour late depending on shift on the Christmas day, boxing day and NY day, but our shifts dont allow for much else. Sounds mean, but I no longer do christmas day as Ive done my share and policy states that I shouldnt work BH unless no other alternative... shame! Same with nights, gutted (not)

    PS. I know it's the wrong diary, but has anyone heard from Ed? He went AWOL right after GG and HDK starting fighting for his hand in marriage - poor guy:p

    That's what we're worried about :eek:.

    NSD today (apart from ebay postage which is unavoidable, but I did do it at work so it's around 19p cheaper :).
