Stopped here to take a breath between visits. Need these small breaks to rejuvenate.

This looks exactly like the area we are living in. Maybe that’s why I like Lincolnshire so much …

Hehe, so not Linconshire. But it looks like the area where my friends lives, near Louth.

Morning mate.
It’s possibly the best job I’ve ever had but it’s frustrating when I go the extra mile with what a client needs and then get pulled up by the manager because I’m not supposed to deviate from the psp.

I hear you John. What’s a psp?

Person centred plan. We’re not supposed to do anything extra to what’s in the psp. Load of codswallop mate.
I do what’s necessary (psp) and listen to the person, find out what they really need and try to help them get there.
I’m forever getting told off by management, but I carry on anyway. Interestingly, the social workers agree with what I try to do.

Highly unlikely mate. My colleague Chris has left the job because of trying to do the best for client whilst your hands are tied behind your back.
