I Hate Technology!

Here I am trapped at home bored out of my skull, my back is so painful I can't do anything, especially that huge pile of ironing that just keeps growing in the spare room.

 Anyone that knows me, knows that I'm not brilliant on the computer so part of my re-training with this whole Job/Medical Retirement/Dismissal thing was to do an IT course, to enable me to find some sort of admin job.

The boredom was becoming so overwhelming I decided to be clever and start my IT computer course at home to give me something to do, it had all been set up at the Education Center and I'd made a

start on it there, so I knew how it all worked, so I logs in and reads all the bumph and then click the "continue my learning" button.

Dear Mr Cameron

Please find below our suggestion for fixing the UK's economy.

Instead of giving billions of pounds to banks that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan.

You can call it the Patriotic Retirement Plan:

There are about 10 million people over 50 in the work force.

Pay them £1 million each severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:

1) They MUST retire.
Ten million job openings - unemployment fixed

2) They MUST buy a new British car.
Ten million cars ordered - Car Industry fixed

Yesterday Badger Boo wasn't feeling too well, so he had a quite day at home and in the garden and was now feeling so much better today.

We do worry sometimes when he isn't himself, as he is now 10.5 years young and starting to slow down just a tiny bit.

This morning he had a gentle stroll to read his morning papers, had his gravy bones then Himself and I went shopping.

On our return, the house was unusually quite, no mad pup to greet us at the door, I had an awful feeling of dread that maybe Badger

Dear employee:

As a result of the reduction of money budgeted for all department areas, we are forced to cut down on our number of personnel. Under this plan, older employees will be asked to take early retirement, thus permitting the retention of younger people who represent our future

Therefore, a program to phase out older personnel by the end of the next fiscal year, via retirement, will be placed into effect immediately.

This program will be known as S.L.A.P. (Severance of Late-Aged Personnel).

Employees who are SLAPPED will be given the opportunity to look for jobs outside the company.

SLAPPED employees can request a review of their employment records before actual retirement takes place.

A much needed trip to the Groomers

Posted by Badger Boo...

Today was the day for my trip to the groomers, as I was starting to look like a right "Tatty Teddy" my mummy said!

I do like to look my best, but in the Winter I'm allowed to grow my coat somewhat to keep me warm, now the Winters have started to get colder in the UK... But for some reason my coat had got totally out of control this time!!!

As you can see...

The "Tatty Teddy" look...  Not a good look at all!!!!

OMP I have no toes!! *no wonder typing is hard for me*

So off I went to the groomer for my wash and brush up...

First things first, into the bath and a nice massage with some horrid smelling shampoo.
