Anyway I gritted my teeth and was all sweetness and light and smiles and thank yous - even when she told me sometimes she listens to people talking about their job search while thinking "Do I care? No, not really." :shocked:
Afterwards I bought 10 lightbulbs, 50 sandwich bags and a large bottle of mould & mildew remover for under a fiver in the local 99p shop. And I wonder why I haven't got a job or a boyfriend
