    morning all.

    Went to an interview yesterday. Felt it went really well, it was very similar idea to my afternoon job and it was the one they waited for me to come back off holiday for. They will be letting the successful person know Wednesday as it has to go to an executive committee (weird way to work if they have to do that for every job!). Not 100% sure it is what I want but financially it would mean I wouldn't have to teach, I could pay the bills and have around £100 a month I could save. It's also very close to home so about a 5 minute drive to their on site parking or I could park outside my old house and cut through the alleyway back of the pub opposite so really easy to get to.

    Had a copy of the physio report from my accident which basically said she hadn't seen any progress and was recommending a pain specialist and possible MRI, none of which surprises me.

    Salary was _pale_ light this month as no teaching and as I now have no WTC I am going to be in a negative position this month by around £200 :( Got WTC forms and they have my hours wrong for part of last year so I'll have to correct it so they don't ask for money back. They say I was working 35 hours a week before I went full time in August but it was actually nearer 25 hrs p/w.

    Hi all,

    Have put my summer dress on defiantly. Had an email from my friend saying 'Come on down' before the July meet (Yay!) and it hasn't even started raining yet. Good day so far.

    I have lots and lots of sorting / cleaning and organising to do. Went on a really good job seeking course two weeks ago and have promised myself I will start applying myself from Tuesday. Tuesday has now become my volunteer day and they are sending me to meetings representing the trust about a new housing scheme.

    ....so this weekend I need to sort the house ready for the man coming down next weekend.

    Katsu - Yes pm me your address and when I get chance I'll scan and send it over.

    How about putting a flap at the back and using a pink button for a fastening - could look like a tail then?

    BB I will keep everything crossed for you on Wednesday, even if its not your dream job, like you say it will help financially.

    Did you enjoy your holiday?

    it would be at the same kind of place you work at Lou ;) There would be a lot of work to the job, basically setting up a new area of work, not sure if I want to be the person in there first making all the mistakes!!

    Holiday was ok, lovely apartment, positioning etc. OH was a bit of an aarrse on a couple of occasions :( and one night fed me a load of bull to try to really demean me but I just sat there and didn't rise to it.

    Morning!

    No hangover today despite monster cocktails last night:D Hubbles' brother offered to baby sit last minute so we went out for drinkies and steak. Fab night out:T

    Can't get motivated today. Was supposed to go see friend and new baby but am loaded with summer cold (losing voice too - tres sexy) so will be steering clear:(

    Going to try making Kassi's banana loaf recipe later perhaps

    Glad you enjoyed your night out Luc, well deserved after a week at work I reckon.

    Hope your cold goes soon.
