Got meself a part time job, 2hrs morning and again afternoon with a local company, delivering kids with learning problems and some with physical disabilties, to a special school in Wallasey. Still going to cost me initially though.  Bloody CPC test to do, which according to the boss man, is a load of old EXPENSIVE bollox, sitting in a classroom for 7 five hour sessions at £50 a nod, listening to some random jobs werth rambling on about H&Sm, HV jackets, road safety and laws, and a bit of First Aid. This has to be repeated every five years too!! Yet another money making scam. Thats a very rewarding job that,are you the driver? and do you have a childs carer? or are you the carer?.
Life is beautiful when you find Love when you find the place your meant to be when you find the one to give your heart to as for me this is you this is Love

Driver (when I get me application form for re-newinng my PCV licence and assuming I pass the medical) and have a 'carer' with me, yes. Did the same but with another company 15 years ago. Quite a nice part time job actually, as you get to know the kids and can have a bit of banter with them.  Bit sad to see my full time self employment job that I've been doing since 1995 being forced into part time status though, but that's the way the industry has moved now very sadly. Been far too quiet for far too long, so a decision had to be made before the brown envelopes turned into brown envelopes with red writing on them.

nearly as bad as the stepladder licence! Explain to this numpty please.  You now need a licence to climb a stepladder for thing like changing a lightbulb! I kid you not? I presume this is of you're working for the council or summat? You'll be telling me they've got to wear HV jackets too I suppose?  Talking of which, I've got a horrible feeling I'm going to have to wear one. I'm sure I've seen blokes wearing them doing this job.  I feel a potential clash coming on if that's the case. H&S has gone WAY ott now.

My next door diy maniac offered to do my gutters and soffits and stuff a couple of years ago when I was looking to replace them. He started rambling on about needing to hire scaffolding because of new EU regulations or some such utter shyte. Ended up getting a local geezer with an Irish accent,  (cash only mind  ) who turned up with half his family in the p1ssing rain,chrome plated Hymer caravan parked on the drive, (made that bit up, soz, could be construed as being a racist comment possibly) ladders in place, big grins, loadsa laughter and jolliality, and had the whole job boxed within 8 hours. Crackin' job, and not a HV jacket or ladder licence in sight.

My bladder is currently bubbling foaming and frothing. Just had another and final notification from HMRC, informing me that i HAVE to submit my vat return ON LINE after 01/04/12, OR ELSE! I'll incur 'penalties' if I don't abide.  However, if...and I quote..."if the busimess is run exclusively by people who are practising members of a religious group whose beliefs are incompatibale with the use of a computer"...then I'll be ok. I am fckin' speechless for once.

Arrrh, our bearded lycra wearing tossers of the highway that don't pay for road tax, insurance or mot's, that don't see anything wrong riding around in gangs of 20, three abreast and nattering to each other, holding all the traffic up, and waving their arms and fists at you if you DARE to go within 6 feet of them when you finally manage to get past them. Nah, no problems here at all fellah.  Bit like our friendly 'Dobbin' on the highway riders too.  Get in the fckin fields were you belong.
