    That surely must be a win for the homebrew devil....

    I am grateful for:
    1. A lovely dog walk in the sun
    2. The sun (which I was beginning to consider an urban myth)
    3. The can of Guinness in the fridge ( though dog is lying on my leg, so I can't get to it )
    4. A lovely new neighbour
    5. My boys again (sorry) :-)

    Funny dog, I think they do that so they won't miss you going in the kitchen.

    TWO jobs I have looked at on TES today are advertised as permanent. When you get to the school website, they are TEMPORARY including the one I was grateful for. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    DH is getting battered over the head with a wine bottle if he doesn't stop being a d*ck.

    Today I am grateful for
    * getting DS a new duvet set for £3
    * that I am not going to prison for battering DH...yet
    * for a step in the right direction at work (good mgmt decision)
    * for getting a cuddle with a puppy today
    * for coffee.

    Don't batter DH with a wine bottle. It might break and delay your homebrew production.... ;-)

  • All sounds good. Definitely go for the job, whenever I go for an interview I realise how much nicer my own school is. So a result whichever way it goes.

    Sorry can't help with Hollyoaks.....
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
