That's brilliant!
Why walk - he could of got a bike?
Plenty people I know use a bike and it would have saved him hours
Maybe he didn't have any spare money to. You don't know what circs these people are in 
its true - we don't know the circumstances
but really - 9yrs walking 20miles, come on - literally all of us would have dreamed up a better way

The gentle, solitary pangolin has a tongue as long as its body and curls into a ball when threatened. It is also the world's most trafficked mammal, and threatened with extinction.

Great news sprout, everything crossed for you.
I bought a new set of knives, which arrived recently. They are amazingly sharp. I found this out when I was unpacking them and practically filleted my finger.
I've bought a smaller set of them in the past & obviously didn't learn any lessons, because when I first washed those ones I sliced my hand so bad, the sink looked like the bucket of blood scene from Carrie & I had to shout for the boy to come and help me. It took three days for it to stop bleeding. (It wasn't peeing blood for three days, just bloody dressings).

I feel a bit sick now. I'm terrified of knives - mine are all blunt, because I don't trust myself with sharp ones

Tomorrow at 2pm. The ad says sales admin but it's general admin really. Taking orders from customers and checking deliveries in and what not. It's for a fire/fire surround and bathroom furniture place 15/20 mins up the road from where I live. I walked up there today and scouted the place
I feel better about this interview (if you can feel good about them anyway) than I did for the last one.
And yes, I think I might like it

If it's walking distance even better, no travel costs. Best of luck.

Kaffs I stand and cook for hours, I love it so I like sharp knives, I'm just a mare at handling them after using them.

I often toy with the idea of buying some proper ones, (usually when I'm hacking my way through some meat or bread!) but then I bottle it. In another life I was trying to get a knife off my ex hubby (don't ask..) and tried to pull it by the blade... that didn't help my phobia!

Yay! Good luck, and I hope they're nice people.
If not, borrow one of Cinds' knives 
The woman I spoke to on the phone this morning seemed fine
And....????? How did it go, Sprouty?
