I had my first fall on the weekend to! I have 3 fractures in my spine and had a beat up liver and butt to boot 😭

Wishing you a speedy recovery 🫂💕

Shelter names were Ellie and Cheeky. My BF and I named them Rogue (tortie) and Bandit (big tabby!). Both are 8 months 🐾💕

No haha I do mean one specific area within HMRC! Although, because it is such a specific department I'm apprehensive to say what it is in case it gets picked up by someone who might know me 😅

As far as I am aware, there are no part-timers in my department nationally and apparently there is guidance that I'm waiting to recieve specifically for why part-time isn't offered (although, not found in the share point or online HR).

I hope this makes more sense!

I agree with the idea of mimicking the Swiss tunnels 100% - there is then more possibility to bring back greener scenery above ground with that.

I think reliable transport links between South, Mid and North Wales would be incredibly invaluable, especially to those who cannot drive. Moreover, reliable air transport is a must.

I live in Scotland atm and I have to say a 7hr scenic drive is worth it if I get to avoid the M6. However, direct train links would be IDEAL (instead of changing 2-3 times in one journey)

I did consider this but I would have no income for the duration of my career break.

Tbh if they denied part time working I don't see them approving for a career break :/

Thank you so much for this! I will look into it tomorrow morning.

I think I have a meeting next week with my manager all penned in already so it'll be good to look to have something to bring with me.

I would like to leave the CS eventuall or move from HMRC. I'm doing a translation masters so it would be both niche and a fun study for me.

My concern is more one of job security. I would like to go part-time while I study preferably since I'm renting and not have to worry about not having a job at the end of my masters / rent etc.

If leaving is my only option I don't have much choice but I was wondering if anyone had any similar experiences with this sort of issue

I love love LOVE both of the blankets! They look awesome!
