    What a shame. I hope the interview went better than DD thought. It's good interview experience anyway and will give her ideas on what questions to prepare for another time.
    Knowing DD it probably went better than she thinks, fingers crossed they give her the job, like you say it's good experience anyway 😊

    If it’s any consolation when I was interviewed for my current role, I thought it went badly as I was in and out in 15 minutes and they hardly asked me anything. Apparently they knew as soon as they saw me I was right for the role and didn’t need to ask me much. So you never know - fingers still crossed for her.

    I've had the same experience with interviews too. I thought it was awful, but got the job! You just never know. X

    Thanks SA, I told her this and I remember when she interviewed for her last job she thought it went badly so I'm still hopeful 😊

    She always thinks she hasn't done very well. Whenever she does a presentation she always thinks it went badly and she will get a bad mark but it hasn't happened yet,I'm just going to keep my fingers crossed, it would be nice to have some good news at the moment xx

    Well I planned to hoover up earlier but didn't end up doing it, I took B out for a walk and then came home and tidied the kitchen. I also pegged out some washing, then me and DD sat in the garden with a half a cider each and just chilled out. We haven't sat out together for ages because we are both usually doing our own thing so it was nice to spend some time just chatting, we had quite a laugh 😀

    Im now going to hoover tomorrow,I'm only doing downstairs so it will only take 10 minutes, then we are going to go out and attack the patio and patio table, the table is perfectly usable but we just want to smarten the top up. We can do the rest of it another day, luckily it's so hot the paint will dry in no time, I'm also going to sweep up because it's been windy so there are leaves everywhere again, I don't know where they come from and I wish I'd kept leaf blower now
