    Oooh okay. Count me in! I checked my credit reference for the first time today. Happily it's not too bad. I also found an account I'd totally forgotten about. I've closed it and they've sent me the £42 that was in there.

    I've taken that out the bank and rammed it in my pot as it feels like completely free money :D I don't think I'll miss it :p

    hi all. thanks again for all your words of encouragement over my interview. i didn't get the job but they were so impressed with me (apparently) that one of the directors has arranged a meeting with me at the end of the month to discuss my future with the company as i shouldn't have done as well as i did having been there only 7 months. so that's positive and i'm quite pleased even though i didn't get the job.

    so a big THANK YOU to everyone here for their support. you were all great

    Starnac,
    Sorry you didn't get the job, we we're willing you on, maybe with the positive vibes from the directors, they have something better in mind for you ;)

  • Hi everyone

    I have been a bit naughty and haven't put anything in the pot for a while :( think this is because i'm buying Christmas presents all the time (will be finished soon :D)
    Anyhoo i have a stall at a craft fair this saturday selling Nappy Cakes so the money that i make from there will go into my pots :D i must empty my purse as there are a few coppers knocking about in there :rotfl:

    JS

    I am only me, no pretences, no second guesses.. It's the best I can do, I'm sorry if that's not good enough for you... I'm sorry I'm not good enough for you :A

    Sorry you didn't get the job Starnac, but it sounds really positive if they were impressed with you that much! Well done!
