Janus

for the sake of balance (and one for the ladies) Droooool I rarely fawn over any famous people, I think they're mostly vain idiots, and this man is no exception but I just could not say no to him! Don't think I'm his type tho, judging by his wife lol

Enjoy :winkiss:

In that pic, Loiuse Cliffe looks like Kate Beckinsale in Van Helsing.....ie HOT

Eeeeh god, I know what you lot will all be up to tonight!!! :blushing:

You can have the Fox if I can have the GT-R :tt2:

Ha, I have a few girl crushes :wub:

she doesn't have to speak! Bit like David Beckham, I def would as long as he didn't speak

Blimey Ian :wub::wub: on both counts

See now I'm reconsidering my choices for yours, they're def my second faves.....Megan Fox :sweatdrop:

Dunno, I certainly didn't see any boobs (apart from my own of course)

Good luck, and let us know how you get on xx

Couldn't comment on the TV as I don't watch it, but on a girly note, I love the red colour you've painted your wall

You absolutely have to do this for them http://www.portablenorthpole.tv/home?gclid=CJ_b_4XA9awCFYIPfAodXF_HTg I did this for Tash, and watching her see her personal video message from Santa was just fantastic, and its free!

You, sir, are a man after my own fella's heart - if I were to win the Euromillions tonight, I would most certainly be buying him an XJ220. Ridiculous cars but super sexy. And I just cannot fault your taste in the ladies either, I heart Holy Willoughby, she's HOT

Possibly...here's a quote from that website "Redundancy during pregnancy If an employee’s position is made redundant before her ‘qualifying week’ (the 15th week before the expected week of childbirth) she will not qualify for Statutory Maternity Pay (SMP) but may be able to claim Maternity Allowance from JobCentre Plus. If she is made redundant in or after the qualifying week and she meets the qualifying conditions for SMP, she is entitled to receive SMP for the full 39 week period. An employee who is made redundant during her pregnancy will be entitled to any redundancy and/or notice pay that she qualifies for. It is unlawful to select a woman for redundancy because she is pregnant. She may have a claim for unfair dismissal and sex discrimination, irrespective of her length of service"

Absolutely - and I'm sure in the first link I posted, it said that if the woman made redundant was within 15 weeks of her due date then the company has to pay full SMP but def check with ACAS

Sorry Ian! Not sure which I'd rather have!!

Why do think I've always worked full time? Its easier than being a full time mummy!!

Like Kev said above, and you have said, they need to put it in writing the reasons why they have dismissed her. If they have been monitoring performance, and have found that she was under performing, they need to provide evidence of this. They really ought to have put steps in place to aid her to improve her performance too (re-training etc). They will need to pay her statutory maternity pay as she is so close to going on maternity leave

Hmmm, think there are some complex legal issues regarding laying someone off when they're due to go on, or are on maternity leave. Is she a union member? If not then CAB might be able to give you some legal advice. I'm pretty sure her employers are on dodgy ground here, especially as they are required by law to allow pregnant workers to attend maternity appointments etc I'm certain form this link that her employers will have to pay her statutory maternity pay for the full 9 months anyway http://www.equalityhumanrights.com/advice-and-guidance/before-the-equality-act/guidance-for-employers-pre-october-10/guidance-on-managing-new-and-expectant-parents/managing-pregnant-women/redundancy-and-dismissal-during-pregnancy-and-maternity-leave/

Lol, perhaps if I hadn't sat through 47 lectures already about plagiarism and how it will lead to instant removal from the course - the Uni even has anti plagiarism software so you can't do it!

God I hope so Gary, if not to get me out of writing this fecking essay! Its a total beeeatch! Lol

For me it'd be the NSX and this lady :kiss: I most definitely would!

Good and bad news Gary. Good news is that in the dark, what I saw as oil in the sparks yesterday was in fact water, which had somehow got in because the drain hole was full of leaves and we had a torrential storm yesterday with gales, which my mechanic thinks somehow forced the water overflowing from the drain, into the sparks. So he dried them all out, sprayed with WD40 and bingo, she lives. Bad news is that, on driving it after it was fixed, my power steering now seems to have died. Its a big heavy car, getting it out of a parking space earlier wasn't that easy. Got her back home again and mechanic is coming out Monday to look. Checked the power steering fluid reservoir and it looks ok, but will probs drain that this weekend and replace to see if this makes a difference. Oh and I'm doing nights this week, but today I am mostly writing a 4000 word essay about patient vulnerability and the role of the nurse as an advocate.....deep joy!!

Lol, I'm sure he would if he wasn't already doing 12 hour shifts at the local hospital as part of his nursing degree.....
