You know what really makes me happy?

It’s well worth the watch but wait for season 5 & then get a free Netflix trial to binge the lot.

Here is your hat and coat Sir, the taxi is waiting.

The chap responsible for the athletics compound at my local parkrun site pulled me aside today for a quick word once I had finished.

He mentioned how impressed he had been with my progress, and how much he was noticing that I was losing weight since I started attending this location just after it first started.

I’ve not heard that from anyone else so far, but that’s given me a smile today.

Work have confirmed our Christmas meal allowance for 2023…

< redacted Employer> will fund one department/team Christmas meal to a maximum of £40 per employee

quite a jump up from the £25 it has been for as long as most can recall!

Might be worth pointing out that it’s an allowable expense up to £150 without it being taxed or NI’d :wink:

I managed to get this to work automatically and correctly all by myself, and function across 2500 cells! :grin:

tbh a 60% increase from last year is plenty good enough for me.

we managed to find a local village pub doing a meal for £20/head allowing £5 towards a pint so £40 is more than enough!

Would be a startling increase from the £0 my employer allows :joy:

This year is my first Christmas at my current employer. If they’re to form, I’m expecting a voucher for a place that is nowhere near where I live, that I’d have to travel into the office 100 miles away to collect anyhow.

during the pandemic we had M&S vouchers in 2020 and John Lewis (Waitrose) vouchers in 2021 as there were no parties allowed* which was great to fill up the larder with for the Christmas period!

*partygate the exception

Likewise, although the Borough Commander did allow us all to put a breakfast (upto £7) on expenses last year as a thank you for working a million hours each during Op Bridge.
