    The interview went well. I hope i didn't yabber too much.

    They laughed a lot and were really very nice. I just expressed how much i loved the job description and how well suited i am! They are only interviewing 4 people and will choose 2 to have a second interview. It is a manufacturing company so anyone with that kind of experience or who has worked in a finance dept will have an advantage. (I am AAT trained but my job is more Admin than i would like)

    I have done all i can i think. This was the first job i have applied for so i am chuffed to have got to the interview stage. If i am not successful it was good experience.

    Some good news finally!

    OH has got his hours back!!!!:j:j:j:j:j

    Though his colleagues havent so they may be a bit resentful!

    He does all the web development and he boss said it just isnt getting done so have put him on full time!

    Such a relief!

    This means the paycheck we have just had is the only bad one so this month will still be a frugal month. The £100 we got in cashback will help. Then June will be back to normal! :D

    Got called back for a second interview on Thursday! Nervous!

    The lady i know at the company rang yesterday to say they couldn't decide between me and another lady. So we are having a second interview and it will be down to whose personality will fit best with their team!!!!

    Will OH having his hours back it frees me up a little to take a slightly lower pay which is great.

    Right off to do the school run and then come back to do some housework
