    I honk generally you get 2 :)
    I do lasagne or cannelloni with wedges :)
    BNI dough balls would be good if you have any :)

    Wedges are good, think I've still got some of those - scurries off to the freezer.

    Its a Tesco classic beef cannelloni and its supposed to serve one but its 673 kcal per pack :eek: - half a days cals even before you think about the sides and extras and also the guilt afterwards when you work out how much you have eaten in one sitting :D

    I should have had £107 paid into my bank today for work I did in July. My ex boss hasn't paid me and it's just dawned on me what's happened. A couple weeks ago he accused me of stealing residents money from the safe. Of course I haven't but it's occurred to me that he's made this up to use as an excuse for not paying me. He will do this kind of thing because he made an accusation about the ex manager abusing a resident so there would be an investigation which would stop the manager moving on to another job. I spoiled his plan by giving the manager a reference as no one else would and he needed this to move on. That's part of the reason the owner hates me. I'm so tempted now to drive down and cause a scene about my money. He will probably call the police and then I can tell them he's making false accusations about me. I can't think of any reason why this wouldn't be a good idea and it will make me feel better. I can't wait to hand my report about him to the authorities, I was waiting until I got my pay but since he's not giving it I've got more ammo for my tribunal anyway.

    Good morning :)

    Evangeline, thats awful :( If he's accused you of stealing you should tell him to get the police involved. That way you have proof that he's accused you. If you cause a scene and bring it up then without any proof, it might not do you any favours. Or call his bluff and call the police yourself, that way he's put on the spot and there will be a record of what he is accusing you of. Either way causing a scene is just likely to cause you even more stress.
    I hope you get it sorted :(

    Before taking any additional action, in a calm manner call and say there appears to have been an error with your wages this month as you have not received the £107 you are owed and expecting. Then find out the response.

    Never underestimate the chance of error - I know we have messed up paying someone just down to a missing signature where payroll have then not notified us, or a claim sitting on a desk under other papers :o. I am not saying there isn't intent but just saying there may not be as in some circumstances it can be easy to read something into a situation where it isn't :).

    Oh I guess that is what they are doing, good of them not to walk their cement and muddy boots in doors. I do have carpet. :)

    Well they must have enjoyed the tea yesterday as they have doubled in numbers. I have 4 builders today. One has brought a dog though. I hope it doesn't go over the veggie patch Mr TS won't be happy. :eek:

    Morning all. :D

    Builders breeding in the night :rotfl:

    You and me both! I was up 3 times in the night. The third time I woke up after having a dream that I was back at my old work place (that I left 2 years ago) and none of my clothes would fit me! I was in sheer panic about it :o wonder what that means? :o :rotfl:

    if it was me I think I would see if I could find one of those solicitor that gives a free half hour consultation first and then at least you would know what your legal position is re the missing pay and other matters.
    Type out exactly what has happened and when and why so you can show this to the solicitor when you go 9or even drop it off at the solicitors before hand) and then at least she/he will be able to give you some general advice.
    Then if you still have not been paid make an appointment to see your ex boss. Then if he refuses to pay you and makes false accusations you can say you have taken legal advice - which you have.
    The main thing is to keep calm and cool and to just keep saying that you would like the pay you are owed.
