Wish I could enlighten you Karmacat..
KJP sounds like PhD level bingo! I like Bingobritain

It's all relative, though Seaxwyn - my salary is a fraction of what I could earn doing a similar job in London, or the shires, for example.....
Of course those that start off in the City and then come up this way - they are laughing!
As for the bingo - I have no idea. Perhaps you will win the jackpot - imagine the wagering requirement then :rotfl:Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -
Is that a ....... gasp........ semidetached :eek:. Didn't do much for me, I prefer the near the sea/in 10 years will be in the sea ones :rotfl:A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

yes, it has neighbours - but I certainly can't afford a detached one of that size in that area!
I love the "sea view" ones too - its just a case of whether I would be happy to take that risk.
Also, it would be too far to walk to work.
I'll keep on looking :rolleyes:Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -
Seawxyn did you win with your deposit money or bonus money. If you won with your deposit money I think you would have been ok. But when I joined there was a pop up thingy that said something on the lines of if you won the jp it would not be allowed and could not be withdrawn and neither could anything won with bb.
Not 100% sure because it was just a pop up.

Hi Angie, I don't know really. I won my first ever game and I didn't know what I was doing! If there were any pop-ups I didn't read them properly. Oh well, lesson learned....

Seaxwyn Hi,
Yes it would have been bonus money if it was the same as when i joined because they gave you a free £10 bb then you deposit £10 and they give you more bb bonus, but I did the same and just skimmed though pop up and did not take it all in.0 -
Hi hypno et al - well it looks like I successfully withdrew £26 from kjp in the end so only £4 down LOL! I also won £5 on BB yesterday so that is good news too! My clubcard vouchers came thro £14 worth so not a bad week!Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

Hello all
thanks very much for the positive vibes. I feel quite please, as though i didn't get the job (just heard), they had 92 applicants, and only saw 28 of them. So not bad really.
Was a very short interview and a bit unstructured, not like what I am used to. So it was good experience maybe of how they do interviews over here.
Ref the house, not sure i like long narrow kitchens..... but each to their own. lol
chevI want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
