fit for return to work

Congratulations Nidge

I have just started on the house move quest, the letter I had from my solicitor had pages of questions about work undertaken, drainange, sewerage, boundaries etc. I thought that is what we paid them vast sums of money to establish?! I had to give certificates of compliance for the new kitchen and bathrooms I had fitted, for gas and electrical changes that were involved. I believe any change after 2005 has to be certified. It is very frustrating. I hope you get completion OK.

best wishes

Best wishes on your return to work Nidge!

I last moved house around 30 years ago.... Rules and Regs  have changed a bit since then.....

We have recently had our electrics upgraded ( new consumer unit with RCBO's on each circuit ) and a 'certificate' was duly issued.

A new kitchen and bathroom is in the pipeline ( maybe next year ) if we can fit it in between us going away with the caravan 

It appears that there is a 'certificate ' required for everything these days ...... but having worked in the aerospace industry I'm familiar with certificates and traceability  http://community.prostatecanceruk.org/editors/tiny_mce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-smile.gif

Good news about returning to work ☺

Only a small delay hopefully on the house move.And not too far to move.

Did you get second car sorted ?

Get life back to some kind of normality.

That's great news .

When I returned to work I had a fantastic reception. I couldn't believe how genuinely pleased they were to see me back.

I only worked short hours to start with but it was great to be able to be there.

I found it tiring to start with though.

And I am glad I went back.

I retired 8 months later but not because I didn't want to be at work but because I wanted to do other things.

I don't miss it at all.

But I expect my ex colleagues were glad to see the back of me by then!

Hope all goes well for you ,

Good you have been passed fit for work and look forward to it. Everything seems to be very involved nowadays and was a hassle when we moved some 4 years ago. Apart from the highly detailed questionnaire which I fully completed, my purchaser's solicitors kept coming back with further questions until I suspected it was a deliberate delaying ploy. Eventually, I told them so and that they had had every opportunity to ask all questions, so if they asked any more I would take my house off the market. Luckily, I had kept a load of certificates, bills for major work, building inspector approvals, guarantees etc, and I would recommend people do this to make life easier when selling.

I read a quote somewhere which goes a bit like this " there is no live work balance only choices, you alone chose how much you work and how much you live". Since reading that I have definitely put live first always ( and sometimes that can be at work!!!).

Enjoy, hope you get time for running still, even shorties?

Well I guess if you're going back to work you might be able to scrape together the £4.20 if you need to! Better still the plumber should pay for not issuing the certificate when he was supposed to.

Good luck on your return to work. I never thought I'd say it but I miss work

This is great news of you been able to go back to work.

Think the moving house sounds very stressful but will be great once move completed.

Wishing you all the best
