If you're not well enough to be at work, you're no If you're not well enough to be at work, you're not well enough to be seated in front of me.

Please be responsible and reschedule your appointment if you're feeling unwell, or are looking after an ill partner, child or grandchild - even if it's just a scratchy throat - Covid is still doing the rounds and often starts with a scratchy throat.

Please be considerate this winter.
