written, emailed and now the awful finger crossing nail biting wait for either the disappointing crush of no interview or the terror of an interview offer…... once more into the midst…

How I did it
It made me
pea happy 
How I did it: kept my end on some sturdy timber for raised bed making, waited till it was on sale then swooped and lugged it all home in my poor little car, deployed the husband and Dad for DIY weekend and hey presto we have a nice 6ft square raised bed all ready for the Spring.... just need some soil now.... Read how I did it…
It made me
ecstatic 
How I did it: I didn't really do it at all but my husband did : ) He likes things like compost, must be a boy things. He just ordered a kit of the internet, it arrived, he assembled it, we have compost : )It's nice to know all our food waste is no longer going to landfill but helping next years vegetables..... mmmm Read how I did it…
It made me
not that impressed
How I did it: I won a backgammon set as part of my hen do celebrations so it was just a case of sitting down, reading the instructions and giving it a go. Fairly easy game to learn but I'd always thought it would be a bit more interesting..... all those triangles always looked interesting.....ah well..... Read how I did it…

I met with a piano teacher today, who said though I have great talents at playing by ear if I really want to play classical piano I need to know all the boring bits, and I should start with grade 1….. I thought 20 years of tinkling around on the ivories albeit to no great standard might at least mean I could have skipped a coupld of grades but I guess this is going to be a longer harder slog than I suspected…. hey ho… off to buy grade 1 papers tomorrow then another lesson in a fortnight…
