    Hurray! Welll done for the overpayment, and well done on going for the CV/interview advice! You sound like you're well and truly on the way now - going for the professional CV update sounds like you're starting to take yourself seriously, which is great to hear.

    Oops not good when your own diary slips off the first page of your subscribed list :o

    Busy this weekend with foster child wanted to spend quality time with him as it was his uncle's funeral last Wednesday - so we spent the weekend touring the TV transmittors of North Wales :eek: his latest interest I have to say when you have seen one you have seen them all :( threatening to want to do the North West next month :D

    OH helpfully pointed out that we might get arrested for suspected terrorism activities photographing them but glad to say we seem to have got away with it although one of them was in a military training area :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Still PADding slowly to MBNA and keeping as tight a rein on the budget as possible need to sort out two car insurance renewals in the next couple of days, MOT tomorrow and car tax at the end of the month - May is not my favourite month :(

    On the job front I have fixed a date for my career coaching for 31st May :j and Mom has offered to buy me an interview suit :T so I will try and get one on the same day as there are better shops available near Chester than here.

    No news on the claim front still waiting for some legal advice - these lawyers are slow :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Need to tackle the paperwork mountain it is never ending :mad:
