    TA apparently the small town where I live features on a suicide website as a place where the trains are going very fast so results are guaranteed. The local police sergeant shared a very grisly tale with em which I won't repeat here because it still haunts me.

    Hester - maybe you could threaten the person with a slander action.

    I took DH to the Lister to have his kidney stone blasted. We arrived as instructed at 7.15 to be told he was in for a long wait - his op isn't scheduled until at lest 4pm. Poor thing, he'll be very thirsty (and having been told to keep hydrated with his kidney stone it seems odd they tell him not to drink water from 6.30am).

    My L&M had another call from Occ Health, she suggested CBT, she went on to say that the waiting list is very long and so he'd probably be best paying to go privately. Obviously his line manager is worried that work will be expected to pay, hence her enthusiasm for pointing the finger of blame in my direction!

    Hester - it might be worth a bit of a Google to see if there's any mental heath charities in your area offering CBT?. Useful CBT resource here
    http://www.rcpsych.ac.uk/mentalhealthinformation/therapies/cognitivebehaviouraltherapy.aspx - make sure you get a pukka therapist (advice in the link) - and here
    http://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/drugs-and-treatments/cognitive-behavioural-therapy-cbt/#.WBNJfOErJo4

    Given that there's an Occ Health person - do they not have anything in place at L+M's workplace? Also, is there more than one Occ Health person he could talk to if he feels that this one isn't a great 'fit'?

    Mind, after all that we did go out for a meal last night but felt needed a treat, we tried a new brassiere that had opened up in Ely, the place was empty when we arrived but really don't understand why, the food was delicious and not overpriced at all. Let's hope they can make a go of it.
    As long as they're using the right sized cups.... :rotfl:

    Hester I have a theory: the HR [STRIKE]baggage[/STRIKE] woman isn't er.... "getting any" and she's jealous. ;)

    I need to give Jack Spaniel a good brush so that he's all lovely and handsome for his trip home tomorrow; I shall miss the big fella.
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    LW, I was trying to think of an apposite joke and couldn't, well done.
  • Afternoon.....((((((((((hugs)))))))))) if you need one.

    Kitchen floor and sitting room carpet blasted with the steam cleaner. Kitchen mat is still on the line need to fetch it in.

    Gas chaps are in the close putting in the gas to two more of the bungalows, we seem to have started something here.......no more wet rooms going in though.

    Sun made a brave effort to come out but seems to have given up the ghost, its quite dull and more than a bit chilly, my feet are freezing despite the two pairs of socks.

    Fish, mash, peas and parsley sauce for supper. I have half a strudel in the freezer may do that for dessert.
