my boss called me today and told me not do any scratch removal unless authorised by branch manager... got 2 today.the guy they used to call in for it took £60 per panel, not sure what we are charging but it should be a wage rise for me!

Speaking of presents and all.
Does anyone have a joint banking account with their significant other ? How does that work with buying presents and stuff thats suppose to be a surprise?
Me and my husband have had a joint bank account for over 25 years. We just make it work. Cash exists which is handy. Cheques are no longer widley accepted unfortunately. There are ways of buying things that don't necessarily reveal what you have bought before the day.

Buying on websites where the actual purchase is vague... via Amazon or a department store say ... means they have no idea what is actually bought. Buying later means it doesn't show on the card bill before the big day. And sometimes I just take responsibility for checking the statements for a while.

It never seems to have casued problems.

thanks Ed, i'm ok... just had meds yesterday that didn't agree with me.

how are you doing?
Good. The stress test was easy. I'd heard that they are nightmarish.
I'm feeling O.K. today. I did miss about 4.5 hours of work, though.
