Quirky means it has stupid bits that'll piss you off. Grade II listed means you can't fix them.

There are quite a lot of properties round here that are grade 2 though.

Am actually tempted to book a viewing though. Curiosity getting the better of me.

"Quirky" and "Grade II Listed" raises questions.

'Quirky' here means lots of small or odd shaped rooms. 'Listed' probably means you won't be able to get change of use for the shop.

Cheers. No dice, though. Went with someone with more more cosmetics experience. Feedback good though, but need to give more examples when replying to certain questions.

I turned down an interview in Avonmouth, as they wouldn't up the pay by 17%.

The hunt continues, as if I am being interviewed for jobs which pay 25% more, then i should be going for them.

Depending on my job swap activities I might end up getting one.

Helen used to do domestic cleaning for several years. What do you need to know.

We used to have one, when Mrs Grim... retired she took over.

I think we might be getting another one soon :)

The girl in the video (and story) is my friend Pravina. I don't see her that often, she's a good friend of a good friend, you know the deal. But fuck, none of us had a clue. I can't even imagine going through the hell of having cancer, but going through it and also being ashamed enough to not tell a soul? Jesus fucking Christ :(

Don't you worry about them breaking things? I had a friend who had a cleaner and it didn't last long as she would break all manner of things and not tell him. (One being a football trophy he had from when he was younger). The first he knew was when he'd find various bits in his bin.

Wedding band update!

We did some recording on Sunday to get some tracks together for our promo video. It went very well and I must say, we're lucky with the singer we've found. She's very good!

I have a good feeling about this!

I think it's more common that you might expect - something like 25% of households use them now - and it's not just the most well of quarter.

Some of them are very common, some are quite civilised. It's up to you to find that out when you interview the candidates.
