Ok, deep breath................I was soo nervous my tummy has been in shreds. Short version of the story is that we are moving from Dublin and bought a house in Gorey, a country town about 55 miles from the city. The house is in the process of being built and will be ready in September. I saw a job online in a town 25 miles from there, applied, had two interviews and got a job offer...so I just resigned. My boss was really nice but sad, as were a lot of my colleagues as I really got on well with a lot of them. This is a quality of life move as opposed to a career move etc. I am really excited but nervous about all the changes too. I will probably be staying with my parents or my cousin for about a month until the house is ready and P will be in Dublin. I've been keeping quiet on this news all along as I was so nervous that my work colleagues would find out. So relieved to have it all out in the open now! -------------------- S.

Nat and Nelly can confirm the tiny-ness of my house in Dublin! Less of the slagging about the fox cubs ok? (for those of you who don't know my husband's surname is Fox) That's awful about your mail. Send it to my work and home mails whenever you have the energy to rewrite. My home gmail is sinead.<insert my surname>.gmail.com I am off out after work (still at my desk) so might not get to log on later, so try to send it to my work mail too so that I will see it tomorrow and will have time to reply...what are they going to do...FIRE me? -------------------- S.
