    It's still on the table. I gave them until a week on Monday to put a formal offer on the table, and they're working on it (as well as 37,000 other things).

    It's actually looking rather promising. Apparently they can pay me partially through a stipend which is tax free, up to £15k. That means (on the £30k salary they're offering), I'd only be paying tax and NI on a £15k salary. I worked out that it would turn out as just over £2k take home pay per month! :D (I was quite happy about that!)


    Ste that is fantastic:j :beer: fingers crossed that they sort it quickly and give you an offer you cant refuse:D ..like the one above:cool:

    I am really pleased that you love your job, and as far as getting up in the mornings.......tell the girlfriend that you have to go to work and you will sort her out later:rotfl:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
