Got a 4x4 is born , have watched most of them but it is intresting to see what you can build with a lottery win!
Lost all the batteries from my torches , camera etc! Nuts need to buy some more rechargables.
Got Clarksons dvd and Rossi's autobiography cant wait to read that.
Muddymary , sorry to hear, i would speak to a solicitor as they appear to have sacked you whilst you were incapacitated- waiting for the day you came back from an injury may seem a little dodgy. Its worth a try. If there is any way the injury may have been caused by their negligence than have a look at that route. Either way you are probably better off out of it!

Sorry to hear of your problem muddymart. I would contact a solicitor or one of those no win, no cost companies to see if you have a case re your injury or on the grounds of constructive dismissal (i.e. asking you back early just to terminate your employment).

Hope all goes well.

Chris

if you have legal aid with household insurance use that for legal advice,

Trust me employers (some off them) can and will decide to get rid of you anytime thay wish, I have done it and had it done to me me ...I got wise to my impending removal had been intouch with a solictitor before i was releaved of my duties Lost my job at 11am the first solicitors letter went in at 1pm took 4 weeks to settle out of court

the hardest thing was sorting out my reference from them.

so take legal advice you should be able to claim for the injury aswell

Darren

ps Merry Christmas
