Blowing a gale & very wet here.
How are you Bookie?

I'm ok Beanie, thanks.
Enjoying my free time but getting desperate money/jobwise. :eek:

Hellooooo :wave:

Having had a rather hard-going weekend, am now having a lovely couple of days and appear to be kind of back together with Mr Sunday, although taking things verrrrrrrrrry sloooooooowwwwwwly. But that suits me just as much as it suits him - why rush the lovely early days, when everything is nice and life is fun!!

Just had beans on toast for lunch. Yummy.
Had to give in and treat myself to a loaf but I have frozen it so I can use it slice by slice instead of it festering in the bread bin.

Found some jobs to apply for but I don't think I am good enough for any of them.

Of course you are - go for it. You know we'll only hassle you if you don't

It's weird weather here, hot but very windy.

Bookie, apply for everything that catches your eye - don't let what could be a perfect opportunity pass you by because you're not 100% certain you are suited to the job. If the job is right for you, and you are right for the job, you will get it!

Squizz, same here - very windy, but it's a hot wind.

Sun just breaking through now.
I want to do my ECDL just so that I have a qualification for computing rather than just say I can to stuff. It's free if you get JSA but I've still not got approved for it. £105 if you pay.

Trouble is all the forms are different and take about 3 hours to do! If it was just a matter of sending a letter and CV it would be ok but I just seem to be wasting time.
Never get replies - not sure that I want to work for firms that ignorant. :rotfl:

Useful to have Bookie but I would definitely only do it if you can get it free, in my experience most employers will do a test to see if your computer skills are up to what they need so bits of paper aren't vital.
