Ah Jan, thanks for being such a sweetie - This was love-love-lovely!

And I am so sorry to hear about your work shenanigans - I hope getting it all out here will help... Sending hate vibes to The Offender will deplete your energies, my love - No wonder you're feeling knackered all the time...

I wish you every bit of luck and hope it comes your way... I think sometimes they get rid of people just to save money in these economic times, so try not to take it personally... That's all I can say, I guess...

Of course, we are looking forward to all the Public Sector cuts all parties are planning as that will put the kybosh(sp?) on my work prospects! Hey, ho - As they say, as one door closes, another one opens - I hope that for you...

And I really love the spruce you've done about the place - Very, very Austen! Lovely! Hugs x
