Kosher pig-flu back scratchings.
Capt K.K,
Don't disagree with anything in your last post and would point out that a mate in Mytravel has been taking time off in the winter at 75% salary for some years now. He's happy and his company are happy as they still save money [mutual back scratching concept can be taken onboard].
Don't know if you can mention "kosher" and "pig-flu" in the same posting though.
Cheers,
E/W.
