    I'd like to check out Dover Castle. It looks great. When we had wheels we were doing a project of travelling around the Kent coast. It was brilliant. So much beauty. We did finish it actually now I remember. I think Dungeness is the cross over point with East Sussex is that right?

    Deal castle also looks amazing.

    we actually went to Walmer Castle, as we have already been to Dover. It was lovely. spent a couple of hours there, which is about madam's tolerance.

    We've borrowed the outlaw's National Heritage cards while they're away in Brazil for 2 months. so now it feels like the winter has broken I'm determined that we should make the most of them!

    Sadly I can neither confirm nor deny this as my geographical knowledge is embarrassing :o I know the area where I live pretty well though :T

    Does anyone have any fave radio dramas? I'm really enjoying listening to Book at Bedtime while knitting - on a Norwegian thriller at the mo.

    How nice to have their cards for a bit. Have to see how many you can do. Hope you don't get ABC syndrome :rotfl:

    Determined On a more sensible note, I'm very sorry to hear about your friend's daughter that is utterly heartbreaking.

  • cat what are you doing in London? I saw you mention it on your thread but didn't know to what it related? Just being nosy!

    I have an interview for a second job - with the exam board. Basically a promotion from the exam marking I do every summer. I stuck an application form in on the off chance and now they want to interview me. Trouble is I'm really bad at interviews, I don't sell myself well at all and so never do very well. I've been nervous about it for days and just feel worse the closer I get.

    LuckyPenny, I've been selling them to WeBuyBooks, I did do a comparison today with z@pper to check they were still the best (for me at least) and books that had been accepted by WBB were being refused by z@pper. It is WBB that send the codes. Someone on the make £10 a day challenge did mention a couple of others but those are the only two I've tried.

    CCL, I suck at interviews too. My last 2 long stints of work and my last 3 jobs have all been offered to me after I freelanced there first (one of them I didn't even get an interview for :rotfl: )

    There, I'm sure that's put your mind at rest :eek::rotfl:
