Been moderately eventful today except for a lot of not really happening stuff such as the zero calls for the car.

Both John and Matt have been job hunting today. Matt needs to bump up his hours to full time whilst John needs to bump up his ours to ‘at all’. As Mr Sod would have it, they have both been called in for interview by BHS for the same job. Well, not exactly the same job but more a case of two part time jobs. One will suit Matt and allow him to do a morning for BHS and then Tesco in the evening. The other will be later in the day and better for John but ideally, Matt would have preferred both part time jobs to run together so he could ditch Tesco. As it is quite possible neither of them will get the job this is probably a non starter but one thing crossed my mind. If they give the job to Matt with zero retail qualifications and not to John with an NVQ level 2 in retail … do we sue for breach of disability discrimination laws? An interesting question but not one I shall lose any sleep over!

Hasn’t the weather been just great? (It’ll be snowing next week)

Since Matt moved back in he has been really nice to be around, really making an effort. Daisy is sort of making an effort but I am not really convinced.

The collection of the Sebring has been delayed because the garage has some difficulties but should happen this coming Thursday.

Meetings, email and phone calls still happening regarding Jermaine and his move (or not). It has been looking hopeful of late but nothing is ever certain until it happens in this game.

A lovely 24 hours or so in France yesterday. My French held up well on the food but apparently I could not make myself clear enough on the difference between Rosé and Red with wine and that of brown and blonde with the beer and I thought those were things I said rather clearly.

It was ever so good that Robin allowed himself to be told what to do rather than trying to be all independent for the day, that wouldn’t have worked at all as it would have been real frustrating to have been watching him struggle all day when there was simply no need. Have to say, the Etap hotels are excellent value for money. They are basic but they have what is needed for an overnight stay.

The Citroen is now up for sale. John and I spend a few hours today getting it clean so hopefully the calls will flood in and we can get it shifted sooner rather than later. My bank account is groaning under the strain so it would be nice to get a deposit in there ready for the next big bill.

Oh my, look at my hands, I look all butch and manly … that will never do so I sense a bath coming on!
