Sorry, but virtual champagne is compulsory!

It ok, managed to get it sorted, its going to take nearly two hours traveling though!!

The actual place where I will be working is within walking distance of my home but the interview is miles away! Not looking forward to it in this heat wearing a suit! Still its an interview, wish me luck? [nervous grin]

Posts crossed alligator, hope you are ok.

Dss did something to my computer over the weekend, I had to delete him as a user, wonder what would happen if I started a thread stating that over the weekend I deleted my Step-Son! lol

I'm sorry, I won't be about much today (because of the interview) as soon as I get back I will log on if you need to chat.

I've got all my fingers nad toes crossed for you. Heres hoping you get it. I'm off home soon and may not get to logon at home (assuming that I can get the heap of junk to boot). 2 hours travelling in a suit whew sounds hot nad sticky.

Dare you to start that thread Just think of all that rightous indignation. Ive threatened to delete dss more than once due to the amount of crap he downloads and then whinges the computer is slow. Kids eh

Morning all. Quiet without NAAM isnt it? How are you alligator? Squirrel, good luck with your interview, please let us know how you got on fingers crossed for you!

Hello, how is everyone? The interview was fine thanks, don't think I've got it though, they were suposed to be letting everyone know (if they got it or not) yesterday evening but they haven't phoned.

Never mind its good practice for the next interview that I have on the 22nd, I would much prefer that job anyway!

Hi all. How you guys geyying on? I'm sooo crazy at the moment but I wanted to get back important stuff like MN.

Sorry to hear that the job interview didn;t go so well Squirrel. Good luck with the next one. Will return in the morning x

Hope your all having a good evening

Morning all. Just popped in to say hi. Hope you all have a good day.

Both SD and SS called over for dinner last night which was lovely. I enjoy their company, they make me laugh. Long may our relationship continue.

Enjoy the sun. I'm on a course this sfternoon so will look in later.

Hi everyone - back from the hols ( FABBBB) and it was ss 18th birthday the day we arrived back - early hours of the morn so we got a limo for him !!! Then had a house full on Saturday and did a hog roast/bbq/loads of drink and his BM came down for it ... she offered to pay half ... not seen the money yet ... !!!

Now that sounds like fun.....

Boo

How is everyone?

Squirrel thanks for your message - read it last night but didn't have time to reply, sorry Glad your DP is being supportive

yeahinaminute glad you had a good holiday - we did too. Couldn't belieeeeeeeve the fantastic weather

Hope everyone's OK

Hello, hope you had a lovely holiday Naam.

Guess what?

Its Lea's Birthday tomorrow! How quick has that year flown by?

Hello Squirrel

Had a lovely time thank you, went too quick though - doesn't it always?? I really did miss dsd though, which I think is a good thing, and she said she'd missed both us of too which was nice

Can't believe Lea is 1 tomorrow that has gone soooooo quick

How are you? Have you heard anything from the job yet? Good luck for Thursday's interview

Didn't get the job, never mind hopefully I'll get the next one, just been researching it and I know quite alot about the company ect. Trouble is, I have applied for 5 jobs within this company and I'm not sure which one it is I have the interview for! I am trying to find out, can you imagine going in for an interview not really knowing which job it is you are being interviewed for? So typical of me.

Btw, my brother arrives home from getting married abroad today; we have 'decorated' their house and car with flags, balloons and banners saying 'just married', you can hardly see the house.

That's the kind of think I'd about the interview Squirrel

Sounds lovely about your brother's house where did he get married? We're still no further forward with ours, tbh I really don't think we can afford it next year

btw that's good news about your driving test can't wait to hear you've passed, you'll be fine

Naam, about the driving test, it was the new instructor who told me to put in for my test (remember the old instructor was a crap teacher but I liked his car but the new instructor was a great teacher but I didn't like driving the car), well I had a lesson with the old instructor on saturday and I was going to tell him I was putting in for my test but he p-ed me off big time even before we got to the end of my road and I told him to stick his lesons where the 'sun doesn't shine' and I am just going to stick with the new instructor. I will get used to the car and I will put in for my test quite soon.

Don't know how many attempts it will take me to pass though.

Dp was really shocked that I got so angry with the instructor, I told the instuctor that I was just throwing my money away having him give me lessons, he had shouted at me once too often and he can stick his lessons up his !

Dp said "But you don't get really angry like that and start shouting at people!", I replied "Well I do now!".......

Dp has been very careful around me since.

You'll be fine, trust me And you really will get used to the car in time

I hate the first day back after a holiday!! When I have time off I always come back to a big pile of work that someone else could have done and I always get inundated with questions that people could have asked someone else while I was away!!! GRRRRR!!!!!

DP had an irate phone call from BM while we were away saying we weren't looking after dsd properly and he was "sweeping her under the carpet" All because she was staying at PILs for the week! (BMs mum had told her) She had a go at him too because dsd has geen going round to her DPs ex-wife's house. We actually didn't know dsd had been there - the house is near to PILs - but we don't have a problem with it. I can kind of see why BM doesn't like it - if I had children I wouldn't want them going to BMs house - but we think she's got a cheek complaining about anything tbh seeing as she hasn't even bothered to contact her dd for nearly 7 weeks!!

x posts there Squirrel, LOL about your DP being careful

I don't do shouting either, DP doesn't know that though

OMG! How can she do that? What a cheek!

Her BM hasn't seen or had any contact with her for 7 weeks and she wants to lay the law down!!!

Words fail me!

That's what we thought Squirrel, glad you agree We've actually both learned not to let her get to us now, hasn't been easy but DP just puts the phone down on her

dsd is still absolutely adamant that she doesn't want to see or speak to her. DP still asks her sometimes but it seems her mind's made up. BM has been causing trouble between her mum and dsd now too so dsd isn't speaking to her nan atm. Honestly she's worse than a child - keeps ringing her mum up and saying "dd has said this to so-and-so" then dsd's nan rings her up and has a go at her. We don't know of course if dsd has said these things or not but even so, we can't believe how childish BMs being

She sounds like she would be happy in a school playground tbh.

If she wants to know what her dd has been saying why not talk to her direct.

Exactly! And tbh I think dsd's nan is almost as bad - if I was her I'd tell my dd not to be so childish and get on the phone to her dd. But as I've said before, her nan thinks it's dsd's responsibility to phone her mum. We still disagree and there's no way we're going to make dsd phone her. We have a bit of a problem now though, dsd was meant to be going to her nan's for the week at the end of August - DP and I are going away with PIL for FILs 80th birthday so now we either have to not go or take her with us, neither of which are the end of the world tbh but we do need to get it sorted quick
