No ~ when they were first prescribed Boots gave me a months worth (168) in one bottle but I went into hospital and they objected to having to account for a bottle full of the things. Hospital took my bottle away because they claimed they are a "Class A Drug" and I never saw them again. Asked for them back when I was discharged and they had "Vanished from the drugs cupboard ~ look here they are being signed in but there is no record of them being taken out" ~ "Oh what a fvcking surprise  ::)" I remarked "Sister, you and I both know where they have gone so are you going to report the theft or am I?" They never did tell me whether they found them or not so the obvious answer for the future was to ask Boots to give them to me in smaller packs in future.

Excellent news on the valium front! Well done Hound!

As for my job search, it is still exactly that, a search.

I have some advice about the job search (beyond that my advice is about as much use as a trapdoor in a canoe cos I ain't got a job after a year of trying).

Keep up the inertia. Keep applying for jobs. If you think you might want a particular job but have doubts then apply for it anyway.

If you get notification of an interview then in the meantime keep applying. When you come home from an interview and you know its going to be days / weeks until you hear then keep applying for more jobs.

I find this helps phisco phsyci mentally as you have always got something on the back burner.

You also always have the hope that at any moment that phone call / email / letter may turn up and change everything.

We may be a useless bunch of piss-takers but I think you'll find we are all backing you and extremely impressed by your perseverance...

Make no mistake the moral support I receive here, be it in the form of cheerful abuse or sage advice is genuinely appreciated.  cloud9:

Right, off to the charity shop in a bit to deal with the loonies and the customers. One more session there tomorrow afternoon then that's it for a bit.

I am told I will be much missed as I do a lot of hours and am considered reliable (i.e : sane).

Tough.  point:

I agree with TG, but I don't fancy another winter stuck at home.

I am now applying for 2 jobs that I went after earlier on this year - funny how they come on the market again - is the job too much, or is the person the wrong choice?

Now off to lunch with my dad - with a selection of tomatoes and chutneys for him.

The post office will be looking for Christmas casual workers soon. Check their website for details. Could be a nice little job, dont know if it could lead to full time though.

PO = Nice job if you can get in.

That was how I got in as a temp ~ stayed for 6 years (1972-1978) and would still be there but for a change in family circs.

TBH I bloody loved it.
