Progress at LN

I've not talked about working for LN much since I first started. Needless to say most of the teething problems with my kit got sorted out eventually (although I do need to speak to someone about my wages when I find the time).

I am moving up! I have started doing the next level which is Site Visiting (i.e. checking that cleaners have enough stock, the right equpiment, doing the right hours and not missing anything or getting anything wrong).

And I had an interview with the boss yesterday for the operations managers job. I'm not suited to the job it seems, but I was recommended to apply by the other ladies in the office, and the up come of the interview is that I will be working with the boss for a few shifts next week. He seemed impressed with me and is looking to find a position that I will be useful in. So even if I don't get the OM job I might still get something good / intresting as a result.

I do like the idea of working in an office again, and I enjoy being 'on site' at places like the Marina where I am out in the sun shine (and the rain too, but it's still 'out') and meeting people. Plus I'd be an idiot to say that an increase in wage would be turned down!

It'll be very intesting to see what happens. I just hope I don't make a total fool of myself next week, and still manage to get everything else done too, as I will still be cleaning (10hr 15min) and site visiting (c 5hr 30min if I do it all in one go and the traffic's not too bad, more if it is or I have to split it up over a few days) as well as what ever the boss has in mind! I think I have some long hours ahead of me, and a real challenge for a change!

Wish me luck!

Wedding List.... (OMG)

A new kitchen.... Really! We need one! So I've been saying to people that we'll want either B&Q or Ikea vouchers... Only I can't say which yet because I haven't choosen which one I like best: B&Q Oak Shaker style: ( on froogle ) ( on their site ) Ikea: Tildaholm BECAUSE... our kitchen is REALLY badly laid out, the storage is dropping to bits, the seal round the sink is black and festering, the oven hasn't worked for YEARS (the hob and grill are ok though), the seal on one of thef ridge doors has gone too, and the floor... half tiled, half bare concret! But now I have to choose which one I like best, and get the measurements sorted out, and then get the prices for what I can have in the space we've got... PHEW!

Recipe Review: Hairy Bikers liver & bacon with onions & gravy

I need a bit of comfort food at this time of year. I really love this recipe from The Hairy Bikers:  Liver and bacon with onions and gravy  and freely admit that I have whipped this from the BBC Food website. I follow the recipe (but sometimes chuck some mushrooms in too) and split it four ways at 11 pro points per serving. It's a classic, and even my 6 year old likes liver cooked like this - the 4 & 2 year olds need a little extra ketchup to convince them. The Hairy Bikers’ traditional liver and bacon makes a simple supper packed full of flavour and bursting with vitamins and minerals Ingredients 450g/1lb lambs’  liver , sliced and fully thawed if frozen 25g/1oz  butter 2 tbsp  sunflower oil 4 tbsp  plain flour 1  onion , halved lengthways and sliced 125g/4½oz rindless streaky  bacon  rashers, each cut into 4–5 pieces 1  beef stock  cube 500ml/18fl oz  jus t-boiled water 1–2 tsp tomato  ketchup salt and freshly ground  black pepper Preparation method Rinse the liver in a cola
