The Further Adventures Of Newboy

[RubbishMantra]

I don't think anyone's begun a new thread yet?

Hope you don't mind Cozie. Newboy's Fairy God(cat)mothers love hearing about his progress.

I have been rejected for the Hedwig cushion
Apparently it makes the best kneading thing

Newboy’s radiator bed needs a go in the washing machine - and it will be put through it as soon as the postie delivers his new one.

New one? Spoilt boy

Two radiator beds?

I think that's up there with 'lightly warmed'. But ain't nothing beats 'lightly warmed'.

Cozie if I were you I would make the bed at night the only warm place.Not lightly warmed, Cozie warmed. Yum.

As a starter act, maybe put radiator bed 2 in your room, temporarily. With sweets on the real bed.

Mr C's had chews for breakfast because he wouldn't get up again.

Ah. But would he have got up if there were no chews?........

Ollie is bemused by his upset human. He is alternating doing this and howling at me

Why is his human upset?

I lost my job after a decade

Oh Ollivander. Any particular reason?

Just managed out

That's the NHS for you. I've seen it so many times & the incompetent ones get promoted or allowed to coast along doing fa for years.

I'm sorry Oli

O O that's awful. So sorry for you. What complete rubbish news.

When is your last day of work for the current lot? And are you on the books for anywhere else?

I've already had to leave. Dismissed yesterday

Oh Ollivander. Have you spoken to your trades union rep? (If you’re a member.)

Yes, my rep was with me and wants me to appeal. In his words it's an injustice

I have this purring noise going on https://www.facebook.com/olliebobcpl/videos/1689214857789510/

I'd appeal. I really would. NHS managers can be appalling bullies & they get away with it.

We always fight on, even when I want to give up Dh battles on till he's won.

Appeal, then.

I'm going to. Have an interview on Monday and have picked up some casual work in the meantime

Well done. Dhs company used to constantly get its arse handed to it by an employment lawyer for sacking people without following correct protocol.

He works for a multinational

Well done.

Oh Ollivander, I'm so sorry. I hope that your appeal goes well and/or that you find something better. Did you get any sort of package?

Yes, 9 weeks pay

There's a frugal thread in credit crunch. You can lurk if you like.

I'll post an old link with all the best threads. Also look at the matched betting threads in money section.
