    Thank you kindly! Thanks to everyone else for their good wishes too :D

    Biggest thanks to the lovely Clootiesmum who has offered me a lift from the station to ensure I'm not sweaty and harrassed for the interview!!

    Plans for tonight:

    Interview prep - now until 9pm
    9pm - GLEE!!
    10pm until sleepy - more prep

    I'm blushing now

    Interviews are hell at the best of time so and a sweaty candidate is not a good start - so anything I can do to help....

    And can I just add
    5.45am, get up :eek:

    Tell me about it!

    5.45 get up, consume coffee, put on hot water
    5.45 - 6.10 drink coffee, read papers online
    6.10 - 6.20 shower, wash hair
    6.20 - 6.30 breakfast
    6.30 - 6.45 make sure I have everything, panic

    6.45 leave house

    Train is 7.18am and I need to get the bus to the station first, so better early than late to the train!

    Is there a slightly earlier train just so you dont feel you are rushing?
