bluebellsareblue Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I had a hernia op about 18months ago, and as I was working in a manual job at the time (Electrician) wasn't allowed back to work for 12weeks, think it was an insurance issue too. Happy days!!!!! Used to get up early, make everyones breakfast and packed lunches etc. get my wife off to work and then drop wee man at school, before getting a few hours in on FM2007. I handed my notice in few weeks after going back and now work in an office, popping in and out of here all day!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You lucky mutha!! iv been on basic sick pay since! So no pub for me, just good old FM with quite a few cans. Its apparent that FM is a life saver.
