    Am sad today as it's 3 years ago today (11.27am) that we had our lovely dog Rocky put to sleep, he was OH's dog and was 10 when I first met him but he accepted me as his 'mum' really quickly and we became the best of friends, he was like my child. There isn't a day gone by that I don't think of him and I miss him so much but I know he is watching over me (he's helped me out on a few occasions when I've asked for his help).

    Thank you everyone for all the congrats, you are all lovely. I haven't negotiated the salary yet, still not sure if I will, to be honest as they came in at what I was thinking I kind of think it is a fair price :confused: and going for more just feels greedy on that basis. It is mid-range in the salary.

    (((hugs))) for tmd

    capricorn - Pluto moves forward from fri 11th putting you in a better mood. Not that you've been grumpy - but even the dog has been avoidingyou! Your career is going to look much more rosy next month. Just be patient.

    Leo - When there's bad news some people are always in your face. when it's good news, they slink away. Who is grumpy at your good fortune and what does that say about them? Rough or smooth, learn who's with you.

  • LOL - I will do my sums and see what seems sensible, might punt for a teeny bit more. Am going to have to use my negotiating skills to the max to try and get my notice period reduced too.
