    The job interview went good thanks, all very interesting and it would be working with young people in a sheltered housing type system, so challenging but would bring in my counselling skills. I would only be working nights so it would be better suited to my situation. I will hear in the next few weeks, so fingers crossed everyone!

    Thanks to everyone for their words of support.xx

    I didnt manage to post my ebay parcel as the PO was evacuated just as I arrived after there was a small fire, so stood outside and watched fit firemen instead lol. Didnt manage NSD as I needed some veg. And...........I got my phone bill via email this evening and I am gobsmacked! We have been working hard since LBM to get it down, the first month it went down a few quid, last month it went down by roughly £1 more and this month we have managed to get it down by another £11 I nearly fainted lol. Its now down to pretty much as good as we can get, but I am up for getting it cheaper again next month lol.
