    Hoping my car tyres will be okay when I go back to my car later. We have permits to park at the hospital, but this morning I couldn't get a space on site, so have had to park a good mile down the road. However, residents are getting fed up with staff parking outside their houses and several staff have come out of work to find their tyres have been slashed.

    That's awful Lindsey, if I do a late shift or start after 9am I find it hard to get a space. It used to be that anyone could park anywhere, but then in the main car park, the outer spaces were for staff only and the inner for patients and visitors. I can never park, which is why on a late shift I go in early to give me time to drive around the back of the hospital to try and find one, and that is horrid at the end of your shift and you need to walk around the back and it is not lit well.

    I might have to put the heating on in a bit for an hour or so. I did the other evening as it was cold downstairs as it is like a basement really, under street level. Up here in the lounge/kitchen we only have one radiator on then the ones in the bedrooms upstairs are low as it gets hot. The thermostat controller needs to be downstairs in the winter as otherwise it gives the temperature of upstairs so the heating shuts off downstairs. That's why we don;t have many rads on upstairs. Saves it getting too hot.

    That's the problem Becci, they never see it that way do they?

    Has anyone seen that video doing the rounds on book face with the two lads driving at speed whilst videoing?

    Yes that is the one. I watched it this morning. They are being all c0cky and driving fast (at one point 90mph) and then you hear a bang and it goes quiet, then people talking asking if anyone can hear them.

    It's annoying that it's so easy for them to get away with it too gf. What annoys me when my cars been damaged before (once right outside work - was hit by one of our customers in their personal car) and then once when it was parked on my drive someone stole all the wheel trims because they were genuine ones .. It annoys me how they have the bare face to do it when we could return and catch them at any point!

    Not sure health of the national would cough up though. This is in Brighton and we're lucky it's free street parking as everywhere else in the city is meter parking, but it may go that way soon. If it does, I am going to have to look for another job as if I can't park, it would take me 3 buses to get here or a train and an hours walk or a train and a bus. Quite peeved really because the permit cost me £50 and the idea was they were only issuing to staff who lived outside a 4 mile radius. Then they backtracked and issued one to everybody who wanted one, along with two colleagues who live a couple of streets away who always bring their cars to work!!

    Work will have to subsidise your parking payments or something if that happens then .. They can't expect to still pay you the same If you outgoings change as a direct result of going to work and parking changing I imagine

    I seen that vid GF it's the sad truth of taking drugs then driving I'm afraid,both lost lives and one leaving a child fatherless. Terrible. I've lost a few friends through drink driving and speeding it's horrible.
    Still no better but I've still managed to do 2 loads of washing and drying,clean downstairs loo and make rice pudding for after t. Us women crack on with it even if we look and feel like death warmed up,lol xx

    When I was younger me and my best friend used to out out in the cars with someone who smoked weed all the time and at that age we didn't even think .. We never had any but the driver did - like you say hopefully the video will make others think twice as it didn't even cross our mind when we were that young
    Hope you feel better soon pp - chicken soup always helps !

    One thing I hate more than ANYTHING is irresponsible driving. I won't even get behind the wheel if I've had one drink. It's fine to put your own life at risk if that's what you want to do, but hate the thought of putting other people's lives at risk. Really angers me!!!

    I can't even bare the thought of gettjng behind the wheel without my glasses or lens in and I don't even need to wear them legally!

    I only have one affected eye so I struggle to gauge distance sometimes - get a bit of a vertigo feeling so I never drive without them just in case!

    I got a bargain pair at the end of the winter, full leather uppers, from £65 marked up at £10, even though they went through the till at £15. They are the ones I wore as did not want to wear my wellies, they are biker style boots.

    I only changed out of mine about 2 hours ago

    This is the problem with working from home! What's the point in gettjng dressed. Put my kit on now but the big fluffy socks remain and my dressing gown over the top is a must!

    Put a thin layer of foundation on that I don't normally wear and sat down to tidy up Ozzy's toy that's hes kindly destroyed all over the floor and he came right up in my face just sniffing the makeup! Strange fish!
