@louderry I remember those days. My great aunt was the supervisor in a primary school kitchen in the 1960s-early70s. She planned the menus, ordered the ingredients, cooked & managed the staff. She was a fabulous cook/baker.

@GoodLawProject I don’t think there is a private water industry in Scotland!

@mariathom60 @rosie_eats Its very personal to each person

[Helen @heldop61]

@cartmell_lynda @Ariadnes_web @marksandspencer So I take it you were using your staff discount card… or did you not work there long enough to keep it?

[Helen @heldop61]

@mariathom60 @rosie_eats I was a tax payer too for nearly 50 years

[Helen @heldop61]

@mariathom60 @rosie_eats 🤷‍♀️

[Helen @heldop61]

@mariathom60 @rosie_eats Really! My Civil Service pension is under £6000 a year for 22 years employment.

@GeeTeeMcBee @Seansfanclub I have type 2 diabetes caused by long term steroids use taken for an autoimmune condition. Please do not be so judgemental!

@GillianKeel2 @STVNews I just came on here to say exactly that!shocking ( & laughable ) from a Scottish reporter 🙄

[Helen @heldop61]

@suzyglitter1 @JohnBarrowman Sorry to hear this. My 95 yr old mum stays with us. She enjoyed amazing health until about 3 years ago. Now has eye issues but the NHS (Scotland) has been great as has the GP & even her optician. Still very hard though when its 24/7. Only those who do this truly understand

[Helen @heldop61]

@autcareandshare @richandoon That is indeed worse! Hope you both gave a great day x

[Helen @heldop61]

@autcareandshare @richandoon 😡 that’s shocking from a manager! I’m glad you didn’t leave but no one should be put in that situation. I know it’s exhausting when you’re constantly fighting but I hope you complained to the company.

[Helen @heldop61]

@BethRigby He will jump on any bandwagon that passes his way 🙄

[Helen @heldop61]

@flyabout7 @NiallHarbison Oh yes! They’re great dogs. This is my first lurcher. Born in Dogs Trust to a greyhound mother & we’re told a bull mastiff father! She was my giant, gentle baby. Lost her at 7 to a heart condition. Still miss her 💔

@ollyp3 @PolitlcsUK @thetimes I don’t do arguing on social media… blocked

[Helen @heldop61]

@ollyp3 @PolitlcsUK @thetimes I am 64. My retirement age for my state pension is 67 🤣🤡

[Helen @heldop61]

@ollyp3 @PolitlcsUK @thetimes I worked in the public sector for 43 years. Granted a very small amount was part time, between 22-33 hours a week. My pension is under £10,000 per year. Who are these oeople with the “gold plated pensions”?

[Helen @heldop61]

@JayneShannon @OBEhizele @Albrochier Yes I think you’re correct. I’m 64 & I can remember when volunteers were my parents generation.
