I can't spell and have never told Justine what I got in GCSE English!

I had an inkling though . Of course she makes up for it in so many other ways, it would be churlish to moan about the odd apostrophe.

Are there two Olivias now?

Or was Katie in charge of spelling the user names and added an extra L in?

I could just about twist the masses of technical documentation and business cases I write on a daily basis, but the 3 hour commute each way is just impossible.

Zombie thinks MNHQ should have a Zombie Liaison Officer.

She would be happy to fill this (Dustbin? based) position.

She is willing to discuss other terms and conditions.

Would it be set days a week? And would you be willing to pay accommodation for someone outside of London coming there for a few nights to fit the 3/4 nights in?

3 to 4 days

I want to be Events Manager!

I believe that I have already put my name forward for this

Shame there doesn't seem to be any Event jobs at MNHQ.

AND I can spell see ^ sometimes

I would like a job in design please. Based in Suffolk would be nice too...I feel you could do with a new logo office in the country...you could have some sheep grazing outside and all the other er...lovely Suffolk things.

I bet they're glad they posted this ad now.

Gutted, as this is my line of work but I'm too far away

Gutted, as it's not serially my line of work (not too far off) and I really need a new job!

Really, not serially. Bloody autocorrecting iPad.

I can make cakes, that is all.

Ever need a tea girl in east anglia, drop me a line. I make a wicked gingerbread.

i noticed that organized was spelt with a Z in the op

do i win?

Does a brush or comb come with the job?

I see they've advertised on The Gruniard. Were obviously not. Good enough for them now.

What shall we do to the new Press Officer then?

Boo. But did they give the idea about a regional team any thought hopeful face

Argghh southeastastra I'm going to have to sack myself now! Yes, we might well be able to stretch to throwing a comb in with the job!

Tis in the Guardian too to make sure as many people as possible see the ad - we've had lots of responses already, but if you're interested do email in x

Is the grauniad advert worded exactly the same as the one in the OP?

Even for the regional team idea?

I would love this job. I have no experience and would feet very red and flustered if anyone pointed a camera at me. Or if I had to speak in front of more than two or three people.

But I am quite nice, I would bring biscuits and I have would buy a great new wardrobe.
Worth a punt?
