That is appalling - it's like pocket money!!
My friend from works daughter is an apprentice for the council and it's little over £400 a month she gets paid - doesn't get taxed though which is good. But she works full time hours and is surrounded by full time people earning triple what she makes

It must be hard to be motivated when although you're learning a skill/trade etc you're expected to do the same as the others on more pay. Suppose you just have to keep the big picture in mind.

That's pretty grim.
I got to the point when i was working 16 hours a day, every day bar Christmas Day and New Years Day plus my three day birthday and Dr Who's Birthday.
It was then I decided to quit working all together.


no such luck here, I probably be in a box before i can stop working lol

I suffer from a lot of 'self inflicted amnesia' if you get follow? one thing that does stick is films etc, i can actually watch films and quote every line.... blackadder is about 50%, it really does annoy jade when i burst out the punchline or describe the next scene.


...but still game is still the winner:)
The alcohol issue has never effected me.
For example I've just had a couple of lagers and.....

Hi Lyn, hope you're well.

How's Lola? And how's he doing while you are at work? Hope all is well.
All good thanks Gillian,
Lola is well and my nephew is still popping in to check on him.
He is eating really well and thoroughly enjoying his dandies at the moment - he can't get enough!
How are you and Oli?

Great to hear you and Lola are fine.

Am fine thanks, though Oli is still in that 'weird' mood. Once we're out he turns into another Oli. Funny, isn't it?
