I've never put referee details on my CV and those I've read when I've been in a interviewing others scenario don't tend to either.

I think in the olden days of me having a CV I had 'references available on request' at the bottom of the CV in smaller font and italics for hospitality jobs. But yeah agree with others that you definitely don't need to put the references on the actual CV, otherwise you don't get a chance to give a heads up to references that they may be contacted once an interview has gone well!

Application has gone in. Closing date is the 16 July.
I am struggling with the weather and I know there’s nothing that can be done about it. It feels like it’s been Autumn since October. I think we’ve had 1 nice week since the start of the year. I’m hoping it’s just a one off.
Some of my plants have started to arrive (poor things). Waiting for the back row to be delivered and then I can start placing them where I think they’re going.
Another new chicken recipe is in the slow cooker (it’s honestly that kind of weather!)Ordered a bulk lot of coffee pods as they had 10% off. Trying to eke everything else out until 17th when we go to the city to get the car serviced and have a night away. Got exciting things planned like bra fitting and hearing aids to be checked! Have booked a table at the cocktail bar we found last time.

I was only thinking about you the other day and if you were Lewis bound. Yes please to the better weather. It doesn’t have to be walk to walk sunshine. Just a couple of days with no rain would be amazing!
