The retired / left at a younger age staff will be used in non critical non at risk of Virus areas.
People will still get sick with other ailments and need hospitalisation.
There are a lot of younger Nurses no longer working on the front line.
My Daughter in law who's only 40 is qualified and still registered but doesn't work in hospitals, she's in Public Health for a local authority, but needs her knowledge and qualification to do the job.
She has at least 2 part time, qualified but no longer registered, Nurses that work with her.
Her and her staff have moved into bigger offices and gained extra staff twice so far
Amongst hundreds of other things they've been planning community testing, which was always going to happen.
Some people think U.K Gov and others have been sitting back and not doing much, there has been a massive effort behind the scenes.
What do you mean by finally mate? I’m lost.Finally.
Cafes, bars, pubs and restaurants must close tonight
Johnson says the government is strengthening the measures announced on Monday – avoiding unnecessary social contact.
Following agreement of all the four nations of the UK, Johnson said all cafes, bars, pubs and restaurants must close tonight.
Night clubs, theatres, gyms, cinemas and leisure centures must also close on the same timescale.
Had my first job cancelled today the retired couple and their family have put the job on hold till we all know whats going to happen with this virus its going to become a serious problem if it carries on longer than a few months , my wife has now been told she cannot work for 12 weeks and has to stay at home and limit contact as she has diabetes and is high risk , grim times ahead chaps. Stay well people. Kop
Make sure you take a 50% deposit mate.I think this new chancellor had come across quite well it remains to be seen if he lived up to his promises ? Alot of people have probably breathed a sigh of relief not alot of help for the self employed mind but thats no surprise is it , picked up a boiler change today and a bit of tiling in a kitchen so with the work I have should be ok for the foreseeable . Keep well all regards kop
Reckon that with all the pub, gym, leisure centres etc being closed and loss of income in households the divorce rate will soar as one partner has nowhere to escape to.
I mean that advising people to avoid pubs was never going to be enough, though I agree with others that other shops are equally likely to be areas of contagion.What do you mean by finally mate? I’m lost.
It'll be interesting to see which increases more: the birth rate 9 months from now or the domestic murder rate. At Castle Chuck it's looking much more like the latter right now.3 rd best form of entertainment
The gas safe website says they should be completed still.I think they would make a exception in this case bud but its your choice at the end of the day . Kop
That would be my line of thinking too.There’s an interesting dilemma going round my head about the gas safety checks. Essentially I am putting the virus above them in a risk assessment. I’ve serviced them for years, I’m 99% sure they are perfectly safe but legally they are due and the landlord would be liable if anything happened.
Agreed H or completed up to 8 weeks prior to needing it , what I am saying is in these testing times ahead a modern well maintained boiler will not cause a major risk to health if left 3 months over its last service and gas safety check , there is a greater risk to the customer and ourselves of contracting or spreading this virus , we are being advised to keep away from eachother and common sense needs to be applied here. Look after your own health and that of your customers, I will be avoiding visiting multiple addresses and servicing appliances in favour of concentrating on work involving just one address and with the least amount of contact with people.

3 of my old farts who used to do medi gas have been contacted by our old sub contractor to see if they would go and put some streets in. Now they want me to factor the work like I used to do...
ie pay them and wait to get paid...It was a yes as Gordon the Moron who used to run the outfit in Brum has long gone and the new fella is offering way less than 100 days ...they do oxygen and vac all brazed with a nitrogen flood to blow any crap out. It appears there out of date certificates do not matter so it might be men in transits all over again ...my Mrs will go ballistic we used to disappear for 12 14 days

I will ask what are/we’re their certs and training ..watch out tho it was for us bank holidays xmas etc and they worked on a set hours contract for each job which I used to argue with Gordon the Moron about before we turned up and sometimes when we arrived and had to threaten to drive away unless we got more. The work was dead easy really, and I only got paid after the medical pharmacist passed the street often a week or many laterHi Rob, @centralheatking could I get into this type of work? What qualifications/certificates are required?
Cheers Jim
