Ok, started in a great mood, but the site just lost a very long post I just wrote, so gonna keep it short this time, and refer anyone interested in the details to check my blog!

Basically we bought a new car - a VERY funky Ford Fiesta Freedom, got a great finance deal, a wonderful price for my old car, and negotiated LOTS of funky free extras on it. Confirmation it's available Monday in the right combination of colour and extras, and hopefully delivery last week in Sept/first in Oct.

[edited to add SOME details - link to summary about the car: http://www.ford.co.uk/ie/fiesta/-/fie_0508_intro/fie_0508_body_freedom/-/-/225876/. Freebies we negotiated were reverse parking sensors, tinted privacy glass, extra safety pack and half price bigger alloy wheels. It already comes with the FUNKIEST things, like voice activated CD, radio & bluetooth mobile phone system, and 'safe-home' headlights, that stay on for a while after you turn the engine off, to light you to your door.

I'M SO EXCITED!!!


Also, went to big shopping mall to buy an interview outfit for this PA interview Wed - got the whole outfit bar shoes, so now on a mad attempt to find some.

Interview Wed morning at 10.30am - fingers crossed for both good tum day and good me day!!



That's all I'm posting for now as fingers tired from writing the previous version which was tres long!!

(ooh, one thing - am wearing super-smart light grey wide leg, straight leg trousers, a fitted ribbed lightweight wool black vest with a ribbed black shirt worn over it, with sleeves rolled up [only way I can bear to wear shirts], and probably unbuttoned. Jewellery = a delicate silver bracelet, a long silver necklace with dog-tag shaped silver nugget on the end, tiny silver stud earrings and a silver and red beaded bracelet on the other wrist. All worn with a gorgeous red Jasper Conran handbag, which I already had.
Question is - how should I do my hair? Up or down? Can't decide! The guy I'm seeing said this was an 'informal chat', but I'm pretty sure that's code for interview- so finding it hard to strike the smart .v. 'informal' balance - HELP!!)
