DH passed his assessment! He's accepted the job, got an induction tomorrow and starts on Friday. Really hoping this is the start of good times ahead for us. It's an area of work that DH enjoys and once his wages start rolling in we should be able to make some dents in the debt. It also takes us a step closer to our long term dream of a countryside home.9
