    Seaxwyn I will keep you informed of anything interesting qype related!

    I am glad you have DD recruited too - it is a decent incentive for them, and also reminds them what their poor Mums have to do just to get by :o:D

    It is interesting to know that there are well over 200 MSE group members on qype - we really are a force to be reckoned with!

    Been a very good day for me! Got an interview with Petro-Canada, got my ninja status and I got the box of chocolate from Cadbury's Carnival in a box thing...

    The chocolate has been stashed, the dinner cooked and eaten and now I just need to wait for the amazon voucher...

    I'm presuming it's like an email that I got from my friends with amazon where they go and pay £50 to amazon and they send it to your email addy.

    They said I'll get mine by 10th December. I think that actually misses the Christmas post deadline for super saver but I'm in it for the sales! :D

    Hope everyone has had a good day. And remember, if you live around Southwark in London or have to use the NHS trust here, I am currently hiring half the healthcare professionals for it... and I'm hating it so don't blame me if they're rude! :rotfl:
    :beer: Debt Free since July 2011 and it feels good! :beer:

    Now it's all about finding a deposit for a house!

    How do you amass £70k in a year?! :eek:

    They obviously knew where to come for people who are happy to spend hours on the internet!

    Seriously, I think it's a mistake to use the same name, as most of us did. We are much more identifiable on Qype - and I've recruited two non-MSE friends and really hope they don't ever see me on DFW and make the connection.

    I have enjoyed it though. I wrote about lots of English Heritage sites I've visited, writing about them all was like going on a mini-holiday. I too look forward to reading other people's reviews.

  • I love reading people's views on bars they love and one's I've hated! It's so interesting to see the things they fall in love with, I can hate about it!

    Fascinating!

    Yes that's right... TEN shock horrors! they're only helpful when there's publicity, ask them to do something involving hiring their own staff and wooooooaaaaahh! It's like trying to dig a pit with a spoon.

    Well done on the stash of goodies, and on the job interview. But best of all well done on free chocolate :D

    Seaxwyn, I didn't recruit anyone from outside MSE, so I think I will be ok. Having said that, I use the same username on a running forum and was recognised by someone from my Dad's old running club :o

    Ah well, one day I will be debt free and won't need to worry who knows what!

    I don't mind so much people knowing I'm in debt, but I'd hate them to read all the whinging about my OH and see that I write 100 posts a day when I'm meant to be working!
