    Rog, any news, been thinking of you :D

    Hi PaP :hello: :hello: :hello:

    Still waiting for confirmation on the job front - to be fair, they have kept in contact with me - so far three out of five directors have 'agreed in principle', with one director being a bit hesitant to invest the money at the current time. They are just waiting for feedback from the fifth director, which, hopefully, should come today/tomorrow.

    Some good news on the personal front, though - On Tuesday, my eldest daughter gave birth to our first grandson. There were a few complications and they need to stay in hospital for a week or so, as the baby was put into ICU as a 'precautionary' measure - he's making good progress though, and should be out of ICU by the weekend.

    Glad you're okay. :smiley::smiley:

  • Hi all, positive vibes please I have a few items ending on ebay tonight. So far they are reaching £34.21, I would love them to reach over £50 with postage so I dont have to pay fees to paypal to get my money out :D I do have a far few more things that need to go online soon but I may wait untill after holiday for that. Whatever I recieve for these will be going towards my laptop, as much as I would love to buy some craft stuff I havent since 20th Febuary (except my club) and I want to get through 3/4 months without buying anything :rotfl: Will let you know what happens :j
