Has Lou made contact yet? It's been deathly quiet and here's me holding my breath with excitement, waiting to see how she's doing.

We've met Lou, don't you worry about that. Green skin, 3 heads and BO that could restart the French revolution.

Apart from that, she's ace

Aaah, just as I pictured her.

Only joking Lou . I hope they've been taking good care of you and you're enjoying your stay in Ham.

Errr....yes. Now there's a thought, especially after the Hamilton lot got hold of her . Jon, I should have some tea and sympathy ready for when she gets home if I were you.

Oh please do. We could do with a laugh.

Sorry the interview didn't go well Lou, but you wouldn't be the first interviewee to have thought that and still got the job. Perhaps you impressed them in other ways and you have to consider that they spent all that money on flying you down and putting you up in a hotel. They will be thinking twice before turning you down - I hope. Did they say when they'll let you know? It's all very gripping.

Hope you have a comfortable flight back.

Uh oh, I'll be waiting with bated breath now for Lou to report back on what she thought of the 3 of us I can only imagine what she'll tell Jon about us after the way we treated her

Lou - d'you know what, I think I might just give Dawn the telephone number of the company who interviewed you after all - she'll frighten them into giving you the job and then you CAN come back to Hamilton forever and ever and ever

Taffy, you should see her in the morning! She just txt'd me to say she is on the plane. The kids are looking forward to her coming home. Will let you all know when she has arrived back.
