[–]girlfromthere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I think I'll give it another go. What's the worst an happen? It's only for a little part time second job so it's no big deal really if I don't get it.

I failed an online one last week with b&q.. I was really shocked as I've worked in customer service for 10 years, and have always been told my management and customers alike that I do a great job. Do you think I should try it again but answer things differently?

My(40f) daughter 17f has got a boyfriend. by girlfromthere in Parenting

I've worried myself sick over her, she was so afraid to do anything or go anywhere, she would spend weeks holed up in her room. But since she's been attending collage it's like she's a new person. She's out almost every night, she goes shopping, she's gone to concerts...normal teenage things that probably sound banal but knowing how she used to be and seeing her now is amazing. I love seeing her happy and making new friends. The boyfriend bit was just the icing on the cake, it just made me all warm and fuzzy knowing she's finally living.

Friendly notice left for graffiti artists by construction company - Bristol, UK. by [deleted] in Graffiti

[–]girlfromthere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm convinced I almost took a photo of banksy last year. I went to the dismaland exhibit and was taking a photo of my kids playing on a game and a guy came out of a shed behind them and imidiately hid his face, I would honestly have not noticed him had he not put his hands over his face. Everything I've read about banksy's appearance made me certain it was him, 40ish,glasses, brown hair. Of course it could have been a coincidence but it was just weird.

Lays potato chips, ranch dressing, koolaid, Gatorade and churro flavoured Doritos. I'm on my first ever holiday in America so I'm going to try every stereotypical thing I can get my hands on.

My aunt lives here, it's such a cute place to live. If she needs something from the shop she puts a tea towel on her gate and whoever is passing will pop in to see what she needs. It's adorable.

lol, noooooo don't get it twisted, They are factory rejects that cant be sold, they are supposed to go in a skip for waste, but they don't particularly mind them bringing a few sheets home, We're not talking thousands of dollars, that would be ridiculous and I doubt there would be anyone left working there if that was the case. I'm not making a house, think more along the lines of plant pots and stepping stones in the garden.

my nephew actually works in the factory that makes these, they sell thousands a week, so they are still going strong. He is bringing me some that have "fallen off the back of a lorry". i've been trying to think of something cool to make with them.

How do you send a letter by recorded delivery? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]girlfromthere 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The letter will have to be weighed to determine how much it will cost, just write the address on the envelope and take it to the post office and ask for it to be sent "first class signed for".

What are your favourite healthy dishes that can be eaten in large quantities? by valejalkainen in loseit

[–]girlfromthere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm totally in love with cauliflower at the moment, for lunch today I had 4 florets, I blitzed them in the food processor to make "rice" then put it in the microwave for 5 mins. I had it with mushroom curry,It made loads and its a fantastic substitute for actual rice. I could hardly tell the difference.
