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.

What do you think the odds are that the manager sees Nick and calls the police saying that there is a dodgy looking man lurking at the lock..  whistle:
