Coming soon - more on the weekend


I had a de-light-ful weekend with the Quakers at the historic Swarthmoor Hall(pictured here). More on this in due course. Meanwhile normal life continues. Today I attended an interview for an exciting position - I thoroughly enjoyed the interview and I hope that bodes well for my prospects! Funny thing, I'd been warned there would be an IT Test, so this week I've been revising all those amazing features in Word, Excel and Outlook that I haven't had much cause to use recently ... only to discover that the test was in two parts, neither requiring any in-depth knowledge of software. In the first part I was given some information and had to construct a suitable letter, type it out and save it to the desktop. Part 2 posed a scenario and invited me to make notes on how I would handle it.
After the interview I met with some friends for lunch (and got to cuddle baby Olive for a while .... big sigh of satisfaction), then came home to discover an invitation to attend an interview on Monday. It's for a job which will require some specialist knowledge, and to make sure I'm fully up-to-date, I've borrowed some library books to get genned up before Monday.
