Nothing to do with childminding but for those of you who knew about dh loosing his job on xmas eve and our struggle since...............

He went for an interview last night where he is temping (setting up brand new team) and HE GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!!! Starts MONDAY!!! Wasn't supposed to start til 31st July but they are so impressed with him, they want him to get to work on this new team asap! It's also £2k more than we thought!

Sorry, just wanted to SHOUT about it as we've had such a tough 6 months!

Excellent, I am glad thing are on the up.

looneytune · 23/06/2006 17:11

Thanks. A little embarrassed about the water table legs. Went all the way back into town and when she handed them to me, realised that I did have all 6 after all - there was 3 lots of 2 tucked together (well, one inside another)

Anyway, kids happy now and we're having a take away tonight to celebrate so I'm still happy

Thanks to you all for your kind words
