    Snowy hope the interview went well. I used to work for the local council, I started a temp job for 6 wks doing student housing allowances in 1986, they offered me a full time job in a different section when the 6 wks was up,and I was still there when I retired 2yrs ago. ;)

    Evening all,

    It's gone very very dark here...so waiting for the mass of rain to begin!!

    Got in from work, bit annoyed after my boss had a go at me for being late to start my shift even though she told me the wrong time when I called to check my hours on Sat....she didn't even apologise after, she realised she was wrong!

    Hello to all newcomers, I'm very new too so welcome and *hugs* to those who are in need!!

    Jo

    Hi honey I'm home!

    Okay so there is no-one Chez Morwenna, I'm all by myself today. Just didn't want to do a Shirley Valentine and tell "wall" I'm in. :D

    Sos'n'Mash for tea - mmm (probably not as good as "sausages inna bun" Lame Wolf, but I don't have access to CMOTD)

    Wannabe Sybil - I hope Little Bear is more comfy in his own skin soon. Hugs, I've been there...

    Nelski - My Dsis thinks she may need firefighters as part of the recovery process, can you factor this into your timetable?:rotfl:

    Hi all - just touching base because I've been interrupted several times today and didn't get a chance to come back on here! I wanted to thank Nelski for today's treat but I'm afraid they won't be coming back to you tonight, Nelski!

    I haven't caught up with the thread; will try to a bit later. Just off to have a bath. Lovely weather out there - not!

    See ya.

    TIRED MUM, I had a mooch and found your Whirlpool micro here www.biasco.com unfortunately it's £91. I googled it and there were lots of companys that sell them but loads of them are out of stock. Hope your evening is better than your day.
