Interview palaver

OMG - what a mess it has been! I emailed NE recruitment to see what was happening with that NE job I applied for ages ago - they replied saying that they had invited me to interview on the 28th of March, had followed it up but received no response so assumed I wasn't attending. Needless to say, I had never read this email - but did find it in the deleted folder - very mysterious, I guess I must have accidentally deleted it thinking it was the original confirmation of application receipt email. Grrr - how stupid!

I got on the phone to them, and several phone calls later, spanning two days and involving my old NE friend Rachel and 'Alan from recruitment', I have an interview in Lewes this evening (5pm), so thank you very much Rachel - you are a complete star!

Other than this post, there is nothing very promising on the horizon, and barely anything at all to even apply for! I've contacted a variety of consultancies asking, in hope, that they may want to employ me/offer me a work placement to get some valuable experience. A bit on the desperate side though...

I've been trying to remain positive, through painting and trying to get several shop/galleries to sell them - looking promising so far, but very slow progress indeed! if it wasn't for my social engagements I think I would be feeling very low, so thanks to all my friends for their continuing support! [slightly too much on the gushing side methinks?!!].

It's a 'no'...

....from the David Shepherd Wildlife Artist of the Year competition - I'm a bit gutted about it actually, but at the same time cannot wait to see who has won - the works must be amazing (thus implying that mine was very good - I am so modest).
