75% is good. Depends on how many were interviewed and what they were looking for.

Sounds like it went well, I always score myself low, so if you are, as I suspect, similar then that probably means an 85-90%?????

Morning
Had nearly 10 hours sleep, can't remember the last time I slept past 8am.
Managed to lock myself out of online banking yesterday, it is strangely disturbing.
The job, I don't know when they will let me know. The probationary period is not well paid, less than I'm on now, but more hours so I'd be £100 up a month to start with.
I did like them, and I like the place too. But we'll see.
Still feeling dopey, need more PG.DC.

I'm here!
Random ramblings today.
I'm cross with myself because I'm so skint.
I haven't heard re the job, but as time goes on I get less interested. I really am very fickle and like instant results. Not a good trait is it.
I don't like Richard Madeley standing in for Chris Evans.
I have a meeting at work today, I must keep my mouth shut....why ? Because nothing ever changes.
All quite negative, but I'm actually feeling quite positive !
Been flitting through the diaries, loads to catch up on.DC.

HA to keeping your mouth shut. If you are anything like me you will say that and then open it anyway as I just cant help myself if somebody is talking tosh!
I know what you mean about wanting things instantly. I hate waiting for news, especially if it is lifechanging news. If you are feeling like that then maybe this isnt the "one". Things will happen when the time is right for you to handle it all. I am sure of that.
Good luck with the meetings.Some days there aren't any trumpets, just lots of dragons. Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow -- Mary Anne Radmacher0 -

It doesn't really work does it? But then again too much Chris Evans winds me up a bit!Debts at LBM - Mortgages £128497 - non mortgage £27497 Debt now £[STRIKE]114150[/STRIKE][STRIKE]109032[/STRIKE] 64300 (mortgage) Credit cards left 0
