    Glad you noticed! ;)

    I'm so bored of filling in job applications and I can't figure out who to put as my references. One is head teacher...should the second one be from my PGCE, or from my MA or from when I was a TA? Confused.com.

    Good news is I've been accepted as a exam marker for OCR! Yey...

    Not sure about the ref. You could ask your HOD if they know who you should put.

    Well done on the exam marking, one of these years.... Trouble is, I hate marking, the thought of being paid by the paper might spur me on a bit though! When do the papers get sent out?

    No idea. June I would imagine for me (science). The exams are pretty late in the exam season.

    There are no hard and fast rules of how to go about it. My suggestion would be read a few diaries and follow the route that best suits you. Although I'm guessing you've figured out how to post...given that you have. :rotfl:

    A busy week for me this week. I'm pooped already just thinking about it. Still....needs must. I can see this week needing a list. However, I'll see what the doctors have called DH in for first. We are a bit worried as he had some tests done the other day and they called him Friday saying he needs to speak to the doctor ASAP...so he's in on Monday morning.

    I'm trying to think down the lines of he's go a joint issue or something...rather than a problem with his bones. We shall see. Positive vibes please!

    Hey Twinklie,

    Those mortgage figures are looking great. Considering you say you are struggling with your money and not OPing you are reducing your total a lot quicker than me and I am OPing so don't be so hard on yourself x

    I am just getting rid of cold bout 2, they have both been over 3 weeks and we are struggling at work, maybe it's this freaky weather we keep getting.

    Thanks aj. Technically I am OPing a little...but I'm going to have to stop if I'm not careful. Still, I'll get my applications for these jobs sent off soon and we can see where we are. I appreciate the pat on the back anyhoo.

    Don't put too much pressure on yourself, you have already saved money by OPing so if you need to stop for a while then that is ok, you will be able to start again at some point.

    I know I know. But I just can't seem to phone them up to lower the d/d. I've just stopped paying into my savings account and have cut down on a few lil luxuries. I'm fine with that though...my DH just bought me a Snuggie. What more could a girl NEED.
