    Morning all :j

    Good weekend all around.. Went shoe shopping on Friday, found a bargain, so I am all sorted for the next year.. I have big feet: size 14 :o so finding good quality shoes at bargain price is quite a feat..

    The rest of the weekend was relaxing, all topped up with a yummy chinese last night..

    Got a phone call first thing this morning and I have a job interview tomorrow afternoon.. It's a good company and an interesting job (in a field I want pursue my career in).. However, money is not as good as what I am on at the moment.. But, I'd rather be happy in my job.. So tonight I'll be busy prepping up for tomorrow afternoon..

    Hope you are all well..

    Froggy :D

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)
