He has the biggest job interview of his life today - would mean a good salary increase and great prospects for the future so please keep your fingers crossed for him!

Thanks

and thanks to all those who offered advice and best wishes on my thread yesterday!

he just called me - he has walked the course and likes it a lot and he is going to the driving range to hit a few balls and release the tension for an hour!

TBH, though, I'd move to Ireland over St. A's in a second!

That's just me, though!

Hope he gets the job!

Ireland would have been nice and I hear St Andrews is a bit stuck up but the job would be worth it!

I also have a lot of friends near there and would be close to my college!

And there are also some nice villages around there if the job doesn't come with tied accommodation .

it doesn't and I think we would have to stay in a village going by property prices in St Andrews! More used to village life ayway

Good luck - lots of places in Fife cheaper than St Andrews. Don't panic!

Wow what an opportunity! Good luck schneebly's dh xx

expatinscotland · 01/06/2007 12:25

St. A's is as dear as Edinburgh.

But the villages are nice and more local in flavour, too.

DH just off the phone. I could kill him - he said it went really badly and he was tested on types of grass which he didnt know. He was lying!! In truth he thinks it went very well and one of the panel is now taking him out to show him the new golf course which is being built. Sound promising?
