oh heck!

it is something i worry about with my OH. He is a Class 1 hgv driver (massive artics....wet my pants when i see him driving it) and he works for a small company which prints the packaging and info leaflets for medicines, both bog standard stuff like paracetamol and more hospital stuff.

i worry he will just come home one day and say its all gone boobs up.

we have a contingency plan

1, he gets on the agencies (he has 5 years exp so will be popular)
2, he becomes my assistant


hope you OH gets sorted soon


love mandy xx

i read this yesterday on fb

Oh Get him ringing round the agencies they usually have work for better pay. It might be worse hours but at least he'll be working.

Good luck x

Yes I found out the hard way too!!...I just ordered a kitchen, paid deposit and waiting on delivery next week!!!

I paid deposit in cash but thats all £187 but better than paying for the whole amount...so now I have to write off to administrators now for refund.

Hope your hubby finds alternative.

Hope it all works out for you.

Just to say my DH is a HGV driver too

[Alibali]

it is worrying, but we always need hgv drivers, hope something turns up soon x

[Tinglesnark]

oh no! fingers crossed for you all x

Really sorry to hear this.

Thank you for posting as we have stuff at Wickes at the store, waiting for collection...they are the same group as focus.

Hope your hubby gets sorted soon. xxx
