    Well I was getting terribly impatient. The sun cashed my cheque 3 weeks ago and still no comfirmation letter. So I thought sod it and rang Parkdean - they had my reservation! 1st choice date (4nights from the 29th June!) and our first choice park (Newquay)

    I nearly cried! i am NEVER this lucky more and more i think 2009 is finally going to be my year after all I have been through! only 3 of us are going but even with the gas and water, bedlinen and entertainment pass its still only cost £25 for the week!

    I'm thrilled :D

    Sorry i haven't been in touch with you all but i don't have a computer at home I'm at the library!

    not sure what i'm going to do i've gone to all the agencies and my CV is going in for a lot of jobs but theres not a lot of feedback..i'm going to start looking for bar work I think

    Can't believe it..

    What part of London you in? The manager at the venue I normally work is often on the lookout for new staff, it's not a lot but it may help tide you over till something else comes up. I've PM'd you
