    Thanks. I was sooo nervous this time waiting for the call. Didn't think I interviewed as well but hey I've got it so that doesn't matter now.
    Probably off out for dinner tonight but got work tomorrow so can't celebrate too hard.lol.

  • I was wondering what time your interview was, I had my fingers crossed! (Not that you'll have needed it!)
    Enjoy your dinner :)
    When will you start? (Have you already set that? Sorry if I'm being dense...)

  • Lol if I make it there, I'm starting to think my head will explode with stress before then. The inlaws are being worse then ever!
    That's quite close, around three weeks I think...my dates are rubbish though, lol. Is it full time? (sorry if you've already said, memory like a fish at the best of times!)
    I'm excited for you :)

    Just 10 hours a week Saucy which is a great amount for me. IS there anything the inlaws can physically do to stop you going. If not its all mind games and only worth whatever power you give it to affect you. You could play the just smile sweetly, thank them for their concern and ignore them. Will really frustrate them if they see they aren't ruffling your feathers. Used to do it with a horrible woman who I worked with years ago. Would go in with a big smile on my face and a friendly hello and she felt forced into responding. She hated it and I loved it. Probably a bit passive -aggressive but hey.lol

    nikki - welldone on the total- mine seems to be at a standstill at the moment
    nixi- want me to post you a cake in the hope it survives?? (freebie of course!)
    Saucy - let the inlaws bump their gums, you'll not have to listen for much longer, smile and nod, they probably wind you up because they see how they get a reaction.
