  • whoops.........thought I could smell burning......my bread dough had overflowed in the breadmaker and was sticking to the element.....nice little flames too when you pull it off with a knife!!!! Should be ok now and finish baking . Mmmmmm.......smoky smelling hair:o .....good job I didn't go out anywhere when I first put it on.........:rolleyes: :eek:

    I guess there is skint_spice but it said interviews would be held the week commencing 26th so if not heard anything by then, then no interview. At least I've applied for it, my confidence must be getting a bit better. I even bought a paper on Thursday (jobs day), the first since being made redundant in May and hiding myself away every day just working for AQA.

    Chilling indoors today. Watching the results as they come in.
    Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.
  • oh, it's fine skint - just a bit of a burning smell as if I've burnt the dinner and I wasn't going to be un-MSE and turn it off as I would have had to ditch the almost ready bread!!!! Already had one near miss with a fire this year, hopefully they don't come in threes!!

    I'm looking to completely start again in some way. I'd done PR for 15 years and I'd had enough when I left my last job. Thing is with AQA is that it is a lot of hours to pay all the bills, but at least i'm working from home and don't have a fire-breathing dragon boss any more making my life a misery. I'm looking more regularly on the job centre website and I'm registered online with Reed. I might be extra proactive and register with a few more this week.

    DS is in room frantically searching for 40p so he'll have enough to buy some game, there are benefits to being skint cos if I'd just have given him the money he'd be in here yapping round my ankles wanting to get to the shops. wee soul hasn't even asked... (I will give him it....eventually...)
