Out and about

KingoftheCocktails profile image

Yesterday morning I went to a Gedling Community Volunteer Managers Forum Meeting entitled 'Volunteers and The Law, I never knew how complicated things had become and also a bit stupid in my mind.Example,if you claim for lunch with a receipt that is fine but if you are given say £3 allowance for lunch you are deemed to be an employee in the eyes of HMCR

I went to Breathe Easy Nottingham in the afternoon.We were entertained to an excercises demonstration.I was worn out just watching!!

Last night I went to a meeting about improving the local enviroment.Subjects included:-improving /development a Nature Reserve & Wet Grassland area(Netherfield Lagoons),turning a disused railway track into a walkway and wildlife haven right in the middle of the community..I came away with lots of seeds for sowing which will grow into friendly plants for bees,insects etc and a bee house.The name of the group 'NAG.,and that's what they did(in a nice way) and I have been asked to join the group.Apparently they need someone who does not care about speaking their mind,I don't know why they asked me!!!!!!

This morning I went to my surgeries Patient Participation Group,s meeting where we discussed requirements that patients of the practice had put to us and a few legal issue.

All in a days work as the say.

This afternoon I sat in the garden with Badger just relaxing.

I love doing what I do when I can do it

Interesting to read this, King. I read about disused railway tracks. I went along one on the buggy, and found it fascinating. Too bad the battery conked out just before the end, but we could see the car.

There were 'councillors' in attendance last night.They don't always seem to like someone who speaks up.Counselling?I prefer to give it than receive it.
