Just needed to be heard for a little while

  • Hahahahahahah! Great minds, Pyxis! I was just about to post that! I am probably the only viewer who burst into giggles at the figure under the blanket! I'm not scary! (It needed a little pug shape under a blanket next to it). I loved the episode though, especially the end.

    I missed the end - filling in my online JSA form.:(
    I was hoping to have heard about a job while I was away, as they sent me a draft contract which seemed quite hopeful, but there's been a deafening silence since.
    Feeling a bit fed up tonight. First time I've had to sign on in nearly 30 years.

    Haha! Yes! Where was the pug shape?
    It was the best episode for absolutely ages! I was beginning to give up hope!



    So sorry, Elsien, but no news is perhaps good news?

    Aw, sorry to hear that, elsien. Hopefully something else will come along quickly or perhaps the other company are just slow coaches? You have loads of up to date experience so that has to be on your side.

    Actually Pyxis, even WaSp shouted out "It's you!" at that scene, it amusingly spoiled the scary moment somewhat as we cracked up laughing. I loved the message about fear, though. "Fear makes us all companions". I like that. Guess who cried at the end?

    Sorry, don't mean to whinge when others have got far more to worry about. I know that generally speaking things could be an awful lot worse - just letting off steam here rather than worrying family.

  • Hahahahahahahah! I LOVE it! That's the cutest thing ever!

    You aren't whinging, elsien! No ones worries are ever smaller than another's, it is how situations affect individuals that is important and that is a varied as every person is (I used to say to my clients when they felt their concerns weren't important enough). It is dispiriting to have to claim benefit especially after working for so long. I am crossing everything that something comes up for you soon.

    That's what we're here for, and it IS a worry, not trivial at all! :A

  • Elsien, don't forget that in all those years of working you paid National Insurance and now you'll get some of it back! I'm sure you've earned it.
    Deal with things as they are, not as they should be.
