    Well, being in the different timezone, it's now wednesday for me, and today I'll spend $1.80 (about 75p) on a newspaper with jobs in.

    Wish me luck on the job hunt, all that seems to be advertised is "casual, 0-20 hours a week, must be available over 7 days" :confused:

    Edit: a true sign of me being stingy is I was inordinately happy when I found I was wrong and the paper cost $1 not $1.80!

    Downside is, after reading it there are still no jobs! Think I'll enter the competition in it to win choccy though, costs nothing and I deserve it!!
