Christmas day

Following the water shortage (see the previous post) came the FLOOD! Someone had left a tap on in our guest bathroom so when we got back from a Christmas Day swim, half our house was under water! Fortunately, many hands make light work and things were cleaned up in time for Christmas lunch for 24 people! Who said rural Christmases are small? We had to move the lounge furniture out onto the verandah to accommodate everyone!































There was one other piece of drama - a woman with placenta praevia (placenta over the opening of the uterus) and bleeding arrived just before lunch. We don't usually like taking placenta praevia to theatre here as things can go badly wrong, but we had little choice. Although the baby was stillborn, the mom did well, something we're really pleased about!

We’re always stressing the importance of honesty to jobseekers, especially when it comes to their CVs and interviews. But how often do recruiters stray into the world of embellishment and exaggeration in order to secure that perfect person for a role? Withholding information regarding a job or misrepresenting responsibilities and expectations will damage your reputation and lose candidates’ trust.
