    Weekend Travel/ Interview

    The weekend was crazy. Spent Friday night out with G, my flatmate and a few other friends. Wasn’t really up for it, but Graham said we had to go so we wouldn’t upset my flatmate.

    Saturday we wandered around town all day. I love just walking around and doing nothing. I bought a bag to take with me to London so I would look professional instead of having a back-pack. Ha.

    Took the train to London on Sunday. It was clearly a 1970s model. :( Not the newer luxurious one they have. So cramped and smelly and achy was the name of the game. Luckily Matt (Graham’s friend) picked me up from the station in his car. Hallelujah! No tube changes to get to their flat.

    Sunday night I had a roast dinner (pork, broccoli, potato, carrot and gravy) cooked by Matt. We then played Monopoly…everyone else was really competitive, but I just wanted to go to sleep. The flat is really small but big for London standards and there were 2 other people staying (Judie the actress who is currently touring in Germany with a company that using drama to teach English and Ben, who is a sweet idiot but honestly dumber than a brick). So I slept with Matt (he has a boyfriend). Judie slept with Dom. And we left the ‘sweet idiot’ to himself on the couch.

    The interview went well. I know for a fact they are contacting my references (emailed me to ask my permission and one of the references contacted me about it). So I think that’s positive. Seeing as how my reference just contacted me today, I’m assuming I won’t hear until Thursday-ish to give them time to collect the responses and read through them. So may be employed by the weekend. May still be looking.

    But I’m up for the adventure, and Graham…well he’s sad but already plotting ways to make it easier for us.

    Well I personally LOVE London so I will be MORE than happy to come visit. Not that I don't love Scotland as well, humm....I just need to get myself a plane ticket.
