    Well one thing we can be sure of is that you should probably avoid work for 52 weeks so you don't kill someone who's funeral you then have to attend and feel guilty about!

    I, among others, really did not want to be on the plane any more.


    Got me thinking. The client is constantly sending messages to premie staff warning them not to take part in unnecessary travel. Great. What about us? Kind of defeats the point if I come into the office sneezing my lungs out.
