YAWM. Yet Another Wintry Morning.

Fresh snow overnight, more falling right now, and the temperature is -9. Oh joy.

Thankfully, I have THE FLU and have been confined to quarters. I can enjoy the wintry scenes from the sweaty fevered heat of my sick bed.

I have just been out to the shed/greenhouse to get a sack of spuds. While there I checked the min/max thermometer.

-18 to -2

Another snow shower has just started.

Schools are being closed because staff can't make it in.  In a lot of schools the staff travel from outside the catchment area, so whilst kids can get there teachers can't.

There used to be an arrangement where teachers would go to their nearest local school of the age range they were qualified for if they couldn't get to their own school.  This has had to be stopped due to teh requirement for every teacher to be CRB checked by every school...

There was a similar arrangement in the NHS - staff who couldn't get to their own workplace were expected to go the nearest NHS facility and work there. I don't know if staff can still do that since the introduction of trusts as individual employers.

No longer technically possible thanks to CRB and ISA requirements on the individual employers...


...but that didn't stop a Minister in the Department suggesting, on Tuesday of this week, that staff who couldn't get to their own workplace were expected to go the nearest NHS facility  ::-)

Actually, that was yesterday. We've had some more snow now and it's less glassy.

Well, be sensible, you can't expect Ministers to know the law relevant to their departments. :-\
