I think I've had good news today re my business. Small print needs to be examined, but 20 people, who are mostly not well off by any degree, may be still able to get some work from me. The point of this post is not that though, it is all the repeated messages of support that I have personally received on here, whilst this hiatus has been going on & my delicate state of mental health has struggled to cope with the uncertaincy. Thank you to you all. Bloody brilliant forum this.
Well done JP chuffed to bits for you. Always remember in times of despair lots of people are with you your never on your own .
And not so long ago people on here were screaming for it to be a football only forum. "The BBS - discussing all kinds of 5hite since 1997" (or whenever it started). Long may it continue.
Really felt for you JP when you originally commented that you were probably going to have to wrap your business up. Pleased that the Government looks to have now done something to help your goodself and many other self employed folk. Sincerely hope that everything works out for you.
Good news all round for you in these sh.tty times. Good for you mate. Keep that chin up ( hopefully Jimmy Hill sized) and enjoy reading the ******** which is often written on here...
Good to hear. Stay strong. Whatever our political differences, We are all the same leaky lifeboat but it means there are enough of us to bail it even if some are getting wet feet. Stay strong and we will come out of it. We consider ourselves very lucky being retired and able to self isolate with little difficulty and sufficient space to not feel trapped. We do constantly think how it must be for people in work and how they cope. Being in the 'at risk' category we found ourselves in the frustrating position of having time and resources to help e.g. volunteers needed to deliver food etc to elderly housebound but not allowed to do so. People here were just starting to recover from the 'hammer blow' of the 2016 Earthquakes but are being resilient. If they can do it so can the UK. "Tutto andrà bene" as they say here...in other words "It'll be reight!!!" Stay safe, the health of you and yours is what counts at the moment.
That’s fantastic news mate, really made up for you, maybe when all this is over we sort a pre match beer in town with folk off here.
