    So I've accepted and cancelled the other two interviews and accepted the job which I'm happy about very excited to start even if it is lottery funded there is help with monitoring paperwork.

    Taken the car in for repairs brakes sounds really bad hopefully not too expensive hopefully just new discs but we shall see. Chicken and meat from Mucslefood being delivered today. Need to be bagged up but shouldn't take too long.

    Need to do some cleaning so dirty in our rooms. Toilet floor too just annoying with no hot water.

    Emailed two contacts at old work see if they will meet up could be very useful for new job too might be some cross work.

    Might do my CPD points today much needed as I'll get checked this year as I failed to meet them last year.

    A bit of chilling needed too lol.

    Congratulations on the new job. It must be such a relief.

    Is MuscleFood much cheaper than the supermarkets?

    It should be I got 10 kilo of chicken breast 1.7 kilo of steak (10 rump)) and 12 sausages for £82 it's easy to have it delivered too.

    Still need to pack up 2.5 kilo yuck.

    Keeping my eye on the boot camp we want to do the price dropped by £200 for this week so hoping next week will be the same if we hold our nevre but it might sell out. Really want to go.
