I've recently lost my job (although looking for another one has become a full time job) so have time on my hands and want to get this place in order! It's just me and the OH that live here, we only moved in 6 weeks ago (and still haven't unpacked everything) and the place is already a disaster.
Welcome Drea, I recently lost my job too and know exactly what you mean about the time it takes and it's really draining. I finished 4 weeks ago and have been to an interview each week and had meetings with 6 recruitment consultants. I seem to have less time now than when I was in work.
Good luck with the flying, it really helps. Gives you the motivation and aims, you don't have to decide where to start because you already have a list.
Good luck with the interview tomorrow! :beer:0 -

Thanks everyone
hope you all keep your fingers and toes crossed!
Typically I died my hair (had blonde tips, brown roots for a while) and it's gone ginger... even stranger, I quite like it
