    Good luck with the list over the weekend......I will be having a bit of a housework bash myself (you heard it here first!) so might even get the iron out :o

    But I didn't put it on my own thread.........

    terms and conditions apply, past performance is no guarantee of future performance, etc etc......I am sure there must be a get out clause somewhere.

    What about a 21 day cooling off period :confused:

    Ah good-o Beanie you are a witness.

    I think she has a get out clause in the word "might" but she did use that four-letter word.

    I'm sure it was mis-sold to me :o

    MoT, I've just spotted your signature. I persuaded my boss that CAP was the charity that we as a company could support :j :j He's even thinking of training as a support person (not the highly expert ones)

    I do hope that your interview goes well. Cassiobury is a beautiful part of that area.

    And the office has thawed a bit. But the man was as bad as the woman. Yesterday it was shouting and door slamming :rotfl: :rotfl: :eek:
    Hi Olive,

    Thats brilliant news! Did your boss agree to this? I do some support work too with the Centre Manager when needed so it would be great if your boss came 'on board'.

    Got the job too which is great news, and yes Cassiobury is nice and I won't have to trek through Watford to get to work. Just waiting on CRB check and hope to start within next 3 - 6 weeks.

    Hope your imagination is working on full throttle for you new play - well done! My OH had a dream a couple of weeks ago and was so struck by it that he has written a short play from it which he hopes to put on later this year, it won't be a full theatre one but will hopefully show in the Studio which has a smaller seating area.

    With all the rain due this weekend, I guess some of your plans will change but I hope you achieve what you set out to do.

    Have a lovely weekend Olive xx

    Thanks MoT and best of luck with the new job. I'm so pleased for you.

    Boss is part of an introductory course at his church in Feb - he said I could go along; but the first one is really for church members only as they get to grips with it.
    This is the first stage for anyone having debt worries. If they work through a budget and there really isn't enough for necessary bills then they'll be referred to someone who can help them with a DMP. But for those of us who woke up aware that great chunks of our money were going in interest and paying for things long since discarded, it's a good help.

    Would really love to see your OH's play. Please PM me the details :D
    The one I've put aside was always intended for a "workshop" type production- I like that. But the one that I have to do NOW is a murder mystery fund raiser. The audience get supper and have to work out "Whodunnit" I've done 7 before and the problem I've had is thinking of new morives for murdering someone:rotfl: But in this one the "situation" is providing enough help :rotfl:

    Off to the shops now. I've cleaned the bathroom, the sheets are in the machine and I'm doing the wet weather options today :D
