    I've just heard from the recruitment agency...

    I didn't get the job I went for on Thursday... :-((

    But I do now have 2 interviews tomorrow. Maybe 3rd time lucky for tomorrow afternoon.

    I now in the true style of comfort eaters, want to attack a HUGE chocolate bar.

    Aww that's a shame Lucy - good luck for tomorrow, the right job will come along soon! x

    I had some feedback.

    Basically, They liked me, but had other people with more experience, but less qualifications. So went with them instead.

    The one tomorrow afternoon is with my local council in their property department, which is what I was doing at my last company, so fingers crossed!

    nope Lucy........sigh.........I've paid the mortgage manually over the phone and also the £25 charge as that apparently accrues interest.

    I'm going to have to take a copy of the letter from my mortgage company and send it to the Abbey. Apparently copious notes have been put on my account so hopefully it will be refunded by the Abbey.

    Because I've paid within the same month, it won't change my credit file. (famous last words).
