    thanks lovely

    How are things with you? Been worried about you ;)


    aww cheers babes! well, waiting for result of temping interview.. no idea why I am so nervous... but I may have a survival plan in place by the end of the week which does NOT involve selling the house!!

    If I get the job I promise to pay off the last loan. Helpfully the settlement figure came at the weekend and I would save £1600 in interest and PPI (didn't cancel it cos of my medical condition) over 3 years!!!

    Let's will the call centre to call me back.. I was polite *and* friendly *and* literate.. then we can all work out what I should retrain as on the side!!

    Lynz, OF COURSE we missed you! Things are good ish at my end, although I'm feeling the competitive pressure of ehallet's head to head challenge a bit!!!! :eek: So sorry about the agency, did he sign up for both? how annoying. Did they even call him for an interview? that makes me so mad :mad: I might have a bit of a chase on his behalf? that way he's on their books ready next time.

    Hi - I'm glad you had a good break, it seems to have re charged your batteries, I know I don't post much but always catch up with how you're doing - good luck with everything.
    :confused: you are as you are, if you aren't as you ought to be.
