Hello everybody! :hello: -I'm BACK!
Had lots of problems getting my internet back on after moving house, and they were ALL Virgin Media's fault!!! But now I'm here
Scatty asked me to tell you guys she won't be around for a few days. She's got exams and is very busy studying.
Even though I haven't been able to read the thread properly, I can see you guys are making A LOT of progress, I'm so glad!
My change this week is to treat jobhunting as an actual job, so I'm on my "lunch break" now :P -Haven't received many offers yet, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Hope everyone's alright, it's so nice to be back!
