    oooh, is that the plan bookie - to have a mail order/online business?

    I don't know if was Bookie's original intention, but I think it could be an excellent idea, that should work well with the main business.

    How's the AQAing going BB?

    AQA was going very, very slowly..........too quiet to even bother being on it in the afternoons........sigh......ah well, went to get the paper and there's a part time job I'm going to apply for. Better salary than my current part time job, not the solution but at least it would be a step up financially. Also sent my CV to the head of the school I was teaching the sixth formers saying that if they ever needed a short term cover cookery teacher or for a few lessons I'd be interested in joining the school. I could also teach Media Studies or Drama with my career experience and my degree (I'm determined to use my bloody Drama degree one day!) so I mentioned that also. Might as well tart myself around!

    I think thats a great Idea BB, I really really hope you find something soon that puts you on a better financial even keel, otherwise I worry you will burn out!

    Bit of a manic day for me today but home now, eaten feet up and on the laptop so happy :)

    Hiya Sally......the problem is, the merger has slowed to an almost halt. I have seen all the JD's for the structure and there are 3 jobs I could go for that won't have people already put into (because they already do it) and that I quite fancy. Problem is, I'm not wholly qualified for any of them, mostly lack of number of years experience for one of them, a qualification I'm missing for another and although I could the third (the best paid of the 3) I'm not sure I'm quite up for it confidence wise - it is a real networking 'hi, great to meet you again' kind of job. Bit too suited and booted for me I think......so I'm still stuck with jump now and miss out on something I want where I am really happy working, or hang around and be turned down when there are a couple of other opportunities around outside my current department.....dunno......
