Joy! Back in time for leaf & ice covered roads.
If you're really lucky they might not recognise you after all the time away and not let you back in :-)

If you're really lucky your company may let you take the works van home

God, no.
Think of the damage he'd do to himself forgetting to brake at a roundabout in a van full of dead rats....

No chance now...we are supposed to be getting fully electric vans...Range 100mls...My commute 36 miles each way...
I pointed out that I'd not make it back in the following day...'Oh you can do a quick charge at the end of the day before going home...45mins'
Hahahahaha I replied yeah like i wanna spend an extra 45mins sitting around before going home...
The council want the whole fleet to go fully electric inc the bin waggons...
I pointed out how un-green these things are to make in the first place...waste of feking time & money...
It'll be fun when the first one conks out & then they realise that they cant be towed as it feks the elec motors up...

Good news Mac, a few extra days off to watch daytime telly....
I had a mitsubishi PHEV electric vehicle for work and I used to sometimes charge it at home. I fitted a meter to the supply and charged them for it at double my unit rate for the inconvenience.
Maybe give that a try?
Anyway, good to hear you are on the way back to paying some tax!!

Finaly got a letter today with an appointment date on...
So I'll go & see them, we discus the injury, recovery & how I feel it may affect me in day to day work...
Then they write a report & send me a copy for approval & then send on to me Guv... Takes a week or so for that. Then The Guv will call me to come in & we disscuss the report & set up a back to work plan...
The date I hear you ask...24th of January ...FFS 6weeks time + the week re the report & then a few days to sort out the appointment...
Still it means I don't have to start setting me alarm yet for a bit...
So looking forward to the early cold starts ect...

At least the fleas, bees, wasps and cockroaches will have one last Christmas....
Hopefully, in six weeks you'll be a terminator once again, instead of an ex-terminator.
You'll be back....
