    I got lucky for my birthday.

    My little sister (who has just gone four) bought me a butterfly doorbell for my bedroom.

    Oh, it's true. So, instead of pretending i can't hear her knocking and shouting there is no escape as the nice little door bell buzzes quite loud.

    There is now no escape.:eek:

    Aww, thats so cute!!

    Softie? Me...noooo! lol

    The freezer shops have all been removed from my apps now :mad:
    Its a bit swings and roundabouts at the moment with ESA. One minute I can self allocate and the next minute I can't......:(

    I'm not sure I like the self allocation aspect now. Nothing for weeks then as soon as I go out they are on and off like a brides nightie! I used to like waiting for acceptance/rejection from them - it either made me feel very good about myself when I got a job - as though I was the chosen one! Now, it just goes to whoever is the quickest, or whoever is on the computer at the right time. They seem to come on quite late with ESA as well - is someone doing the night-shift?:eek:

    That made me LOL :rotfl:
    I do not understand how I can self allocate one week but not the next- very strange. I know what you mean about waiting to be 'the chosen one' lol!

    micro chips, fishfingers and birdseye chicken breast nuggets (if you have kids)

    I have three children, but they never eat those foods :D

    I took three freezer jobs and still have them. Wasn't sure how many I could take as I couldn't see anything in the notes.
    Here I go again on my own....
  • I'm having the same SA probs too. I received the hallowed email bestowing SA status a few weeks ago. But can I SA? Can I b/uggery!

    I have applied for a bunch of freezer shop jobs but I'm expecting them to disappear overnight :angry:. Let's see what tomorrow brings.

    :rotfl: Loved your 'brides nightie' quote, Dotty :D.

    The new government offices scenarios ask us to play a recently released "con" looking for help .

    I have to say that I cant wait to crack into this.What a challenge for a righteous person like me.

    But what should i wear?

    Im not sure my usual smart casual outfit will cover it and the trusty "Hi Vis" jacket is obviously not appropriate.

    Any suggestions gratefully received.
