Thank you all very much for your good luck wishes and husky hugs.. Unfortunately I didn't get the job as per usual the job went to someone with more experience, even tho it stated in the job description that no experience needed as full training programme given .. I even said that I didn't want them to give me hope if they are eventually going for someone with experience.!!! So why bloody state that and then not bother .!!! î– Anyway I'm off on the job hunt yet again..!!!!! îÂâ€

I hope it is okay to post this here; some very big changes are being proposed for the NHS, and when I discovered just how big, I emailed everyone I knew and posted a thread on a couple of other forums in order to raise awareness. The main point of the new legislation seems to be that the state will no longer have to provide free health care, paving the way for a US style health service. There is a campaign group called '38 degrees' that have an online petition, along with relevant legal documents/reports pertaining to the issues. Please consider taking the time to read about it (rather than the spin in much of the mainstream news) and show support for the NHS by sign…

So heres another pitbull attack dont get me wrong I love pitbulls and have nothing against them and apparently neither does the mother of this child but do you think the owner should get to choose the fate of their own dog? I say there should probably be a 3 strike thing because sometimes things just happen once becasue of certain conditions. This was the 2nd time but it was pretty brutal :/ http://www.castanet.net/edition/news-story-63675--.htm#63675

Finally, a good, fairly sizable petstore opened up, and its right next to walmart, so instead of driving for 2 hours round trip, to go to the petsmart, We can just pop in there in a few miles. I seriously scoped that store, looking at everything. It actually has 99% of the stuff @Fox Tink & Eponine sent down for Eponine! I'm really (REALLY) glad that I found a place that sells ToTW. They also sell zukes treats, which I was really fond of when they came in the mail for Eponine. They have a lot of stuff, not nearly as big as the petsmart, but its quality over quantity. The only thing that I looked for and couldn't find was a clicker. I w…

Would you really want to eat this - jwvaEpYbUIM Diners in Japan looking for a moving experience over dinner can now order a squid that dances off their plate. A restaurant has created a dish, named Odori don - literally meaning dancing squid rice bowl - by adding soy sauce to a fresh squid. The high salt content in the sauce reacts with ions in cells of the squids' tentacles creating voltage differences, and making the squid move.

The man's two rottweiler dogs ran into the water by the Eastern Esplanade, by Chelsea Avenue, and one dog mauled the boy. 'Terrifying ordeal' During the attack, the boy…
