GOOD MORNING FOLKShttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif

 

Well here we are in the middle of the week, how are you all coping with the current weather conditions?

 

I manage a day centre for adults with a learning dissability, and we are now on our 3rd day, where we are unable to offer transport to and from the centre. Yesterday we had 4 clients who braved the elements to attend the centre. We normally have 70http://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif

 

Some of my staff team are also unable to get to workhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif

 

WHEN WILL IT ALL END????

most customers are very understanding and wait patiently until we get them a car
