So many well wishers! Thank you all SO much 🥰🥰 it does mean a lot to know you are all rooting for me 🥰🥰🥰
I had a bit of a disturbed night, waking intermittently which is unlike me, but understandable. Room is tidy, notes are prepared, I just need to get dressed and breakfasted now. Mr C is going to go out, so there's no risk of accidental noise and distraction, and so I won't be self conscious about being overheard 😂 And as soon as I'm done, I'm going to go and join him in town for a cake to soothe my nerves 😂
Then he's off to a band practice and I will... well, I'm not sure what. Not stray too far from my phone, I imagine 😂 Might watch a nice film and re-do the edge on my crocheted blanket 😂7 -

Thank you all for your good wishes, they really do mean a lot!
It went well, I think. They were lovely 🥰 their questions were all over in half an hour 😱 so I asked them some 😂
I don't think I embarrassed myself - although now of course I am raking over every answer I gave and thinking of things I could have said differently 😬 i think I definitely came across as someone that would fit well in their organisation - but perhaps not quite competent enough for the job they're hiring for 😬
Time will tell! And I am probably not going to be very patient 😂18
