My partner was made redundant last August. He has only been offered two interviews since then (September and last week). Agency has just advised that it looks like he has secured a new job on the basis of last week's interview!!
I'll really celebrate when the officlal word comes through later today - even so, I feel SOOOO pleased for him.

I'm a great fan of the Lake District and have walked extensively - at least a day trip is feasible for me at about 2.5 hours each way to say Langdale. Do let us know where you are.

I loved Arthur Ransome's books as a youngster. I must have been about 9 when I read Swallows and Amazons.

Well it put a smile on my face anyway. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

A nice easy walk for a couple of hours is to get the boat in Keswick, get off across the lake and walk over Cat Bells and pick up a boat from teh other end and back to Keswick. It's picturesque and doable in probaly 3 hours maybe less

Apparently, after only 6 months, I've turned into a prodigy. Says a lot about what I spend my time doing...

A really good thing has happened to me and a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Suddenly middle-age doesn't seem so bad after all!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
