A quick note to say that, no, we haven't lost our computer or forgotten about the other side of the world. It's just been one of those weeks. I've spent most of my time on-line applying for jobs and sending my CV off to any company that looks halfway decent, and therefore relish time out from behind the keyboard. G's been busy at work, and when he's home has preferred to watch old Dollar videos on Youtube rather than update the blog.
But hopefully things will change soon. After wallowing in self-pity and despondency for the past few weeks over my job(less) situation, the sun finally broke through the clouds today. I received three (3) invitations to attend job interviews, as well as being asked to meet with a recruiter. One of the job interviews was unexpected, as I had interviewed with them last week only for all of us to realise that my lack of stats experience would be a hinderance. However, they called specifically to ask me to interview for another position, which is a huge ego boost.
G bought me some dark chocolate orange clusters to celebrate. More celebration will follow on Friday when he receives his first pay since starting his new job. I much prefer being paid on a fortnightly basis, but the usual thing here seems to be monthly payment.
In other news, Max has settled in well and is enjoying snoozing next to the radiator. Dogs in Scotland must be a lot uglier than him, as he attracts many smiles and comments from passers-by. It might be his stylish trench coat, though.
Night to all.

People probably like Max's accent, just like they love yours and G's.
And great news about the jobs as well - so awesome that you were asked to interview for another position!
I second the remarks from 'talkingbudgie' whoever that may be. Mil
