That's a bit cheeky bookie. I'd have told her to buy the second copy then. Cheeky cow telling you what you can and can't sell.

I actually thought she was ringing up to buy it. I've put it in the window.

Cheeky mare!

And does the copyright of the book allow her to use the designs in this way?

That's what I told her.

Exactly. I was a bit sharp with her. Nothing to lose now.

I've been thinking about it for the past two days - but it keeps raining...

It's the tumble drier for me...

There are some weird job titles around locally

Python Developer
Pharmacovigilance Associate (long name badge needed for that title!)
Six Sigma Black Belt
Consumer and Merket Insight Manager - do you need to be a Meerkat to apply? :rotfl: Love the typo!

Well Python is a programming language - so I understand that one...

"Pharmacovigilance Associate" sounds like something to do with drug trials - probably a better badge than "Guinea Pig".

"Six Sigma Black Belt" - something to do with market trading?

"Consumer and Merket Insight Manager" might not be a typo - might be based in Liverpool...

hmmm..........I've just found the job I applied for and had an interview a month or so ago (where I didn't like the environment and it may hae had some Cruella contact). It's with an agency and the teccy part (where I wasn't up to what they wanted) has been really softened and the creative and comms part is more prominent.

I'm tempted to chuck my CV in to the agency just for the hell of it. I'm 99.9% sure it is the same job but odd it isn't on their own jobs website.

I could turn up to the interview and say 'so, this feedback when I last didn't get the job you promised me, what was it again because there is nothing here I can't do' And then turn it down

You could give them an Employer's Competence Test for them to fill out with a given time limit.

I've made shower gel

My sister sent me some Lush bath bits. I've used the shower gel and so don't have any. There was a tub of lemon scented butter stuff you use in the shower, but I tried a bit and it was rubbish, just kept slipping off the shower scrunchy. I added a small amount of water to the tub and mashed it all up until it became a thick paste and I've poured itinto the bottle. Added a little bit more water as I guess it will start to re-set and shaken it.

Ta- daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa - lemon shower gel

We actually...you should be interviewed again. Even with the technical teccie bit you still fulfilled all the essential criteria.
