back to work after 3 months

went in and told them had more appointments to take

asked them about the sick as it overlapped a week (last week) cos wondered how theyd pay me

oh cos on the sick holidays get cancelled

you have to take them again

thats nuts i got sick pay for that but then will get paid for the days when they get holidays on :D

christmas off :D - cant take them in nov due to appointments (dont know what theyll do)

so thats week and half in december and the two days id booked for a gig the last time they saw me :D

some days are just nuts - so having been enforced off i now get enforced leave from work :D

Spec will be on a sticker on the base.

I collected a sunroof cut out of an AX from him a few months back on behalf of somebody else.

Certainly stands out on the estate!

I had 2 Pirelli tyres fitted at Kwik Fit yesterday and this morning I received an email explaining I'd been selected at random to win the tyres for free including the cost of fitting... £233 😀

Were you aware of that before you chose kwik fit, I do wonder if whoever thinks these promotions up has any idea if they attract new business or just cost the company money

I was aware but it wasn’t the reason I decided to purchase from there… I’d already got 15% off too!

Done 90k 3 times in connects and 75k in a Nissan nv400 2 ish years each and never had issues :D

It is Beajolais Nouveau day today. My central heating boiler needs a dose of looking at but as I had been invited out to lunch decided to leave the boiler til after lunch. I had forgotten it was Nouveau day, so we had to sample it at lunch time. Four of us at lunch. One driving. Three bottles. Oh dear.

Just stuck the electric heater on, will look at the boiler tomorrow. Wonder if this Merlot will be as good? :-)

What's it like this year?  It was always a big thing when I lived in France but I generally came away wondering what the fuss was about...

Now that is a thought I could leave a selection of cars on a roundabout for easy selection when I want to one out, Do you think they would roof a roundabout for me!

You can park anywhere with a “police aware” sticker snd some hazard tape.
