Also, do join the pension as they will be contributing too. It might not be a lot, but every little helps as they say. It will be worth it when you retire.

Thanks Nicnak . Yes I will try to do that. Weather's a bit cloudy and misty but hopefully the rain will hold off!

I hope you're enjoying your walk and the company. You've had a stressful few days with the PPI, job trial and interview so some time in the fresh air will do you good. Such a lovely time of year for a walk, the weather here is glorious today:j

Your Saturday sounds like a nice profitable one all things considered:T. I'm so pleased that you found something inexpensive to treat yourself with. The DVDs will give you and the family a lot of pleasure:beer:. I love nice mugs too but often find I have too many for the small shelf where I keep them:(. I'm always taking nice mugs to charity shops or selling them. I sold 5 at the Table Top sale yesterday, lovely ones but just oddments. I'm not bothered about having matching sets but I like to have something nice for if we have company. OH has a favourite that was a freebie promotional one from a limestone company that had an open day years ago. His other favourite is a 'Happy Easter' mug that came with an Easter egg inside that he won in a raffle about 20 years ago:rotfl:. He uses them all the year round. At least my nice ones are safe;)

Getting a foot in the door of anywhere is worth its weight in gold,I started off at 15 hours week in my job cleaning the corridors of my hospital,now I'm looking after patients and doing all sorts of things I would never have dreamed of, I worked my way up to my job I have now and also increased my hours to full time along the way, nowdays although I've had to cut my hours for my health I'm happy with the way things are going

I am sooooo pleased for you, hearing this news has seriously made my day :beer:
