With only 3 children it seems daft (not working Mums) and two of them are siblings. Hoping I may get some answers in this webinar in a minute! Three children? Have all parents responded now? Quote
sunnyday Posted May 18, 2020 Author Posted May 18, 2020 I wonder if anyone can help - right back at the start of this situation - some very helpful person posted some links for free online training and now I have lost them - any ideas anyone? Quote

At least at 4.5 months mine stays on the rug, did manage a couple of rollovers though 73 - yes good however she meets at least 3 of the vulnerable criteria, and her husband has a serious heart condition! She is a wonderful asset to out team, but she had to bring a chair today as she said she wouldn't be able to get up of the grass if she sat on a rug . 1 Quote

sunnyday Posted May 20, 2020 Author Posted May 20, 2020 Is anyone else suffering with a severe case of 'lockdown brain' - I headed an email to staff this morning 'Tuesday 20th May' - it's Wednesday isn't it, is it? Earlier this year we bought a 'Dementia clock' for my MIL (she doesn't have Dementia) but struggled to know which day of the week it was - off to Amazon, I need one of those 2 2 Quote

I live at the end of our village, and for some reason our side of the 'main' road is the different the rest. We are opposite collects of black/paper, and the following day. All good when I'm working as I just know its the opposite when I drive home on a Tuesday which bin to put out when I get home. - obviously we have to think about which one now! 1 Quote
blondie Posted May 20, 2020 Posted May 20, 2020 Our bins have been fortnightly for ages - one week it is the rubbish and garden waste and the other week is recyclable and glass collection. I always know which one it is by how full the bin is lol. 2 Quote
Cait Posted May 20, 2020 Posted May 20, 2020 And ours a fortnightly genereral waste on Thursday, with the following Thursday for the recyclables then the garden bin in the Friday! So many blooming bins and boxes and bags!! 1 1 Quote
