Things That Gladden The Heart

the advances that have been made in the treatment of RTA victims. i have just sat and watched the Air Ambulance paramedics open someone's chest in the middle of the road outside my house.

I knew they could perform such surgeries as I was their insurance broker for 10 years but to see it being done is mind blowing
 
Local crowd funder has hit over £7K to provide meals for ICU. We're on pizza but the London Brasserie looking to provide individual salad portions too. They are a very good place to eat so excited about this and talking to them next week about this. While I am having a bad time personally, the generosity of the public for all areas of the trust is staggering

Add to that the helicopter pilots James; some of the places I've seen them drop medical crews beggar belief. Even got me a complaint once... :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
 
I emailed the accountant to say I usually get a note telling me to pay my personal-owings by end January, so where is it? They emailed back saying nothing to pay as I was in credit. So I said "super, how do I get the refund?"

Since the original post, they replied saying, just let them know and they will sort it, BUT, can they point out that the payment I will need to make in July is roughly the same as what I am owed. :ROFLMAO:

So, I wonder how I overpaid as much as I have last year?

AND, now a dilemma as to whether I should just leave well alone and that's my personal tax paid till January 2022! Or support the ailing economy with a windfall to spend now and pay it back in July!

Buy the driver!
 
For the first time ever this year I earn the money to treat my dad properly on his birthday (7th Feb) - I was planning to book a weekend golf trip but with no open date on golf, instead ive brought him this (attached)

It may seem a weird one to some - but after years of my dad always doing so much for me, its great to be able to splash out on him as he really deserves it! The mans just great.

Matches his brand new GPS Powakaddy he had for xmas, I know hes going to absolutely love it and cant wait to give it to him!

More gladdening still - without COVID ever happening, me and my dad might not be as close as we are right now. We both took up golf this year and I'm so thankful we did, its great spending so much time with him every week (when were allowed to play).
