In a desperate attempt to cheer ourselves up we've been watching The Muppets a lot lately. It's doing the trick certainly. We also watched 'Sunshine Cleaning' the other day as well. I expected it to be a bit more funny than it was somehow but I think that's to do with how it's sold. However I really enjoyed it. I think it helped that it wasn't overly long and the acting from the leading ladies is especially good. It's only downside was the slightly uneven plotlines, some are tied up, but some are left completely hanging. The DVD also comes with a fascinating short documentary though about the real life people who clean up after crime scenes. What a job!
In other news, we've booked a mini-cruise to Bruges. I know, all I do is book trips and holidays but this was too good to miss. It's costing me £70 for two nights on a ferry and an extra night's stay in Bruges itself. Fun times. We've bought a Belgian guide book and it looks lovely. Very exciting.
Not a lot else to report. The beginning of the end has started at work as the Director responsible for my area is leaving. Due to cost cutting he's not being replaced but (get this) three people are getting a promotion of sorts to cover the work. It begins!
Oh my God, news flash! Just got a phone call from the Department of Health job that I'd given up hope for and they've asked me to go for an interview! Amazing start to the weekend! Better fish out that job description, I've completely forgotten what I applied for. I only remember that the application took an age to do.I
