They won't be ready for adoption for a couple of months, I think. Cats Protection is the site!

Probably for the best. I was going to tell DrZ to pick me one up whilst I was there and ignore anything Russell instructed him of otherwise (unless it was 'get two!'
It works as a party manifesto.
I'll have half. Any colour.

The Plasterer came today. There is a trail of destruction from the curb outside our house right through the house to the downstairs loo at the back.

I am sat on the bed with a pack of large double chocolate chip cookies.
I am uncertain if you have a street of toilets at the back, or a saint in your downstairs toilet.

My current job is a maternity cover role but this morning I've found out that the lady I'm replacing is coming back early. As early as the beginning of October!

I've been reassured that my role will carry on though and I am being kept on until the end of February (initially I thought it was January) so overall... a yay and a nay?! I think?

Oh... and she wants her desk back.
Are you going to give her headphones back?

You'll just have to get her pregnant again.

*paging Zio to the thread*
:DD

You could en up as great workmates, so hopefully it will be a yay.
Yeah, I'm not going to worry about it. There's plenty to be done around the place so I'm sure I'll be kept busy.

As for her headphones... I have no idea what you're talking about.
Give them a licky-wash and put them back in the drawer.

Nay, I've spent about £2k over the last two weeks on my eldest son.

Yay. My eldest son has started uni, at Manchester University!

My dad might need to get his hip joint resurfacing redone, so he can't go on holiday to Washington in November and he has non refundable tickets.

He's said I can have them if we can get time off work.
Shotgun next if you can't go.
I can definitely go, so it's you and me if Helen can't make it.
Fucking deal. Drinks are on me.

You'd best have the same names as the price for changing tickets is the same as cancelling and rebooking.

If he cancels he'll get his taxes and airport duties back which is about 50% of the cost in many cases.
SHUT THE FUCK UP RILES

He's apparently checked and they can swap the names.

Varies wildly with different fare classes (which are not the same thing as cabin classes.) It can be free, even, on some airlines and in the highest tiers.

Check out Mr "Planes? Pfft"
Right?! Modern medicine, fuckers!
Sorry Grim...
We can both get the time off work, so no trip to Washington for you.
I know what Zoidberg looks like and where to find him.

How about I 'incapacitate' him, and you go with Zoidlady, Grim...?

There's nothing in it for me except the promise of violence.
Yeah! Mimi 2.0!

I'm not sure I like this new Mimi :'(
Had two interviews last week.

Nay: Not progressing on either.
Yay: feedback was absolutely positively superb and all that, only did not progress due to needing experience.

Where dies this leave me? The CV works as got called to interviews, I interview brilliantly* from the feedback. therefore now I need to find a role that gives me the line management experience I need to hit the two roles I interviewed for.

Worthwhile exercise

* It is, of course,little surprise that I enjoy talking to people where the sole topic is me me me and how great I am.
You clearly need to expand upon how your line management expertise extends not just to official line management, but also the amazing job you did of training and mentoring people with whom you have worked.

And upwards management.

And managing to fend off the adoring hordes.
