Top tip: if you go to the pub and decide to walk home along the river DON’ T FALL IN and get dragged over a large weir, land on a pile of rocks, develop hypothermia while spending three hours crying for help and need to be rescued by boat and taken to hospital  noooo:

So much paperwork  Banghead Banghead Banghead Banghead

That is a handy tip …but now have to replant the weekend …. rubschin:

Bugger! We all have to be reassessed from time to time for insurance purposes. I haven’t been done for 9 years. Just got a message to say it’s my turn tomorrow. scared2:

It’s like redoing your driving test.

One of the others got tested last week and said, “He was really strict and he failed me!” eeek:

Doing some homework today  scared2:

Stay out of sight and you can say you came into work early to enjoy the peace and quiet when you saw them sabotaging the lock.
