I see you found them, Hedgy!

I thought she was on the bus, she was definitely in the final run for the bus!

Boiledbeetlejuice · 07/11/2025 19:30

Now shush, and stop eating crisps it's about to start.

Who has got their phone on < tsk>

I wish to remind everyone that I am a theatre Penguin, and as such get a seat with the best view. So, in the lighting box, or up a ladder, if that’s where the spotlights are operated from.

It's very good isn't it.

Maybe it's a watch... Wink

AsWith is seen by the physio at a time that doesn't interfere with any tribunal excitement!

Any tribunals on 11 December? ☹️

JP finished so early that, if my appointment hadn’t been surreptitiously moved, I wouldn’t have missed anything.

Boiledbeetlejuice · 07/11/2025 19:39

Anyone want a bonbon? Strawberry flavour?

Hedgehogsrightsarehumanrights · 07/11/2025 19:39

@AsWithGlad Shhhhhhhhhhhh

Magpiecomplex · 07/11/2025 19:39

Yes please! Strawberry is my favourite

Hedgehogsrightsarehumanrights · 07/11/2025 19:40

Ooo yes

Hedgehogsrightsarehumanrights · 07/11/2025 19:41

Music is a bit Loud now <dons headset> <munches popcorn and dried bugs>

Magpiecomplex · 07/11/2025 19:42

I was just thinking how catchy the music is and how much I want to sing along.

I spotted Kevin (or Steve) outside earlier. Good to see them. I miss their antics.

Song sheets? The gerbils really do think of everything!

I've got my sheet

Safety Rhythm 🎶
(Verse 1)
Sunrise breaks, the shift begins, let's look around
Gotta make sure that no hazard can be found.
Got your hard hat tight, your glasses on your face?
Before you start the task, set the proper pace.
Don't rush the job, that's where the trouble starts, you see,
A moment saved today means a casualty.
(Pre-Chorus)
Hear that whistle blow? It's a reminder chime,
Risk assessment first, taking back control of time.
If you spot a spill or something out of line,
Don't walk on by, make it your duty, make it shine!
(Chorus)
Gotta keep that Safety Rhythm beating, strong and true,
For me, for them, and most importantly, for you!
Stop, Look, and Think, before you make your move,
That's the fundamental way you've got everything to prove.
Lifting with your legs, not your back, that's the drill,
Safety's not a choice, it's a promise we fulfill!
(Verse 2)
Check the wires, are they frayed or disconnected?
Are the warning signs being properly respected?
Fire exits clear, the paths are neat and wide,
No clutter in the aisles where people need to stride.
If the machine is loud, put your ear defenders in place,
Protect your long-term health, win the longevity race.
(Pre-Chorus)
Hear that whistle blow? It's a reminder chime,
Training and PPE save you every time.
If you feel unwell or something doesn't feel right,
Report it now, don't wait until the fading light.
(Chorus)
Gotta keep that Safety Rhythm beating, strong and true,
For me, for them, and most importantly, for you!
Stop, Look, and Think, before you make your move,
That's the fundamental way you've got everything to prove.
Lifting with your legs, not your back, that's the drill,
Safety's not a choice, it's a promise we fulfill!
(Bridge)
It’s not just big machines, or heights up in the air,
Even sitting at a desk requires care.
Ergonomics matters, screen height and the chair,
Take a break, stretch out, breathe the fresh, cool air.
We're a team, a safety net, watching everyone's back,
No shortcuts taken on the health and safety track.
(Guitar Solo - Upbeat and catchy, maybe a bit of a funk rhythm)
(Chorus)
Gotta keep that Safety Rhythm beating, strong and true,
For me, for them, and most importantly, for you!
Stop, Look, and Think, before you make your move,
That's the fundamental way you've got everything to prove.
Lifting with your legs, not your back, that's the drill,
Safety's not a choice, it's a promise we fulfill!
(Outro)
Yeah! Safety Rhythm, every single day!
Go home safe, that's the only way!
Be aware! Take care!
(Fade out)
