I once did an interview at the DSS where "lady" had lost her child benefit book so she brought in the 6 kids so I could count them. She also had "nae knickers" and proved it to everyone in the waiting room.

Wow, it's taken me ages to read this and I'm on the edge of my seat. Was so, so hoping there would be a job for your OH on the last page. Sorry it isn't there yet but I'm subscribing as I'm positive it will be soon. I have everything crossed for you (including my eyes).
