Depending on what happens between now and Sunday, I may then return to work if I feel it is safe to do so and the company image isn't going to suffer as a result.We only have one chance to do the right thing and the more of us that do, the more lives will be saved.I agree with that. I think Thursday will be a big day for decisions.Good call. Funnily enough I was scheduled to go to my caravan on Thursday through Sunday anyway so no great loss and as TUI have stopped chasing me for the balance of lolly and told me I can get my deposit back on my cruise (due to go to Italy in June - I kid you not) I do not have such a financial imperative to work.As things stand I would rather look back on this week having chosen to do "the better thing" by not working when the death toll and scenes of horror really hit next week.As Griff said - we are in the Phoney war - it's a little like the late winter/early Spring of 1940; we just do not yet emotionally know what hell is going to hit this country over the next two months and I would rather be at an outstanding point in history being part of the solution rather than being a selfish self-serving MODDED.

I hope this does not effect us self employed putting a claim in for financial help. If they say you can work.I myself will be staying home
