    Is that the same Jake the Peg with an "extra leg"? I'm flattered... ;)

    LOL, I found it funny but I have a... "unique" sense of humor, actually the more offensive the better LOL

    Hope you have a great day but I can't guarantee keeping away from the 21 year old... She's just too pretty... But very 21... Mid life crisis already? Moi? ;)

    17:07 Edit: Well GP has signed me off for another 6 weeks (sort of expected this after my convo with Occ Health) and I've made a complaint re. my MRI scan and asked about seeing an Orthopedic specialist (at the suggestion of the Occ Health lady) and am feeling pretty blue :( I got home at just before 11:00 and have basically slept until about an hour ago - Dullllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll but at least work can see I'm cooperating with their own Occ Health people and they have offered to look into setting up a home office (pending results of my face to face assessment and them giving the ok for me to work) so feel a little less like a skivver which is good :)

  • At least your employer is doing their best to be supportive and there's less chance of you running up debt on extreme sporting activities.

    Saturday 3rd of May 2014:

    What a gorgeous day! I nipped out early to grab a few bits and bobs to avoid having to fight my way through the tourists but really wish I could get out and about a bit more and enjoy the sun while it lasts :) still, plenty of time for that once I get fixed :)

    I'm feeling pretty positive today, the sun helps, so I think I'm going to see if I can manage to do something in the yard like a bit of light weeding to break up my day a bit as I realised today that I'm looking a bit grey LOL... I need more vitamin E (or whatever it is you get from sunshine) LOL!!!

    Have a fab day all :j

    Vitamin d.....Hope you got some today mb, I think the sun is good for the mind as well as the body. Plus the added advantage of drying the washing!!
    Hope you have a lovely bank holiday weekend.
    Love Puzz.x

    Hope you haven't overdone it today in the yard & that you managed to grab a big dose of natural vitamin d. Sounds like you have a very supportive employer. It's an early one for me tonight. Got a migraine starting & in work at 6am tomorrow :(

    Well, it's been a great day here in York :) glorious sunshine although I never did any weeding as I couldn't get near enough to grab 'em!!!

    I did do some laundry and I even managed to vacuum a bit (sort of) LOL

    But today has actually been pretty good :)

    G'night all!!!
