    Poor Katie. It sounds horrendous. What awful stress to be put under. It is so difficult to give up a job but its not worth making herself ill. I hope she takes union advice. Sending you big hugs tooxx

    Sounds a right to do with all the staff being put on disciplinary notice, who needs that kind of stress, poor Katie

    Having spent most of the morning on the phone to the union rep and legal advice line, Katie resigned with immediate effect. She’s considering pushing for constructive dismissal but she’s got time to make that decision. She actually had a bit of a panic attack over something really minor this afternoon (we can all relate to that...) so she’s really struggling. I spent most of the day with her sorting it all out and just ‘being’ with her itms. What amazes us is that the District Manager said she was shocked! How did she think Katie was going to react?? Still, she’s already been approached about a couple of jobs so hopefully she won’t be out of work for long.

    I’m happier news, I’ve found my dress for Katie’s party . It’s absolutely gorgeous!

    That dress is stunning! You'll look drop down dead gorgeous as always!

    So glad that Katie has got offers and stuff, but I hope she's going to take some time to work through things too.
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    The back is all tiny buttons! It’s beautiful

    Edit. Crossed posts Suzi. Yes, I’ve told her to sit back and chill for a bit - she’s been so stressed for so long and I worry about her mental health. She’s thinking about visiting mum and dad for a day or two

    When do we stop worrying about our kids?

    Got the red crutches! I’m not sure whether to go with black accessories or red. Decisions, decisions
