Good luck with all the elements today - the getting ready, the driving in, finding a parking space, the killing time beforehand being calm and mind soothing. Not so much with the interview as you are so well prepped - I hope you find it both interesting and enjoyable.

Wow, what a lovely outpouring of good luck wishes! 🤩🤩 you folks really are the best 🤩 I shall think of you all in the audience today cheering me on 😃😃
Fortunately Mr Cheery arrived home just in time to rescue me from going too far down a gloomy spiral of panic 🙄 He stayed up and held my hand both physically and mentally until I got myself into good working order, although it did take several hours so I am not as well rested as I'd like.
He's also disrupting his entire day and driving me in this morning, saving me from messing about with parking spaces and meaning I can have an extra, much-needed, nap in the car.
An all round good egg.
Definitely extra treats for him if I get it. And if I don't, I need to avoid all thoughts of 'if only I'd done xyz' - which I suspect will be easier said than done!
