Gf's family is from around that area, you're gonna be a smoggie ;)

Best of luck, it gets a bad rap but past the Parmos it really is a fairly nice place ;)

There should be an apostrophe there somewhere, and an extra letter. Surely a Northern mobile developer should be called Th'app.

Going to see him tonight!

Can't wait now! Not really sure what to take with me as it's not really a job interview in the normal sense. We're going out for a meal to "find out more about each other and see if there's a possibility to work together".

I'm actually getting quite nervous now purely because this is a job I really, really want to get.

To be able to get into proper iPhone dev work with "no previous experience" is almost impossible so the fact that this guy has seen what I can do and likes it has given me a glimmer of a chance.

Fingers crossed!

Not sure how productive I'm going to be this afternoon though, lol!

It's too late for that anyway.

Going straight from work so it's normal work clothes. Shirt, trousers, black shoes, tie, etc...

More than what I (or most other web places I know of) have employees wearing to work :)

The most I get out of my suit is important client meetings :lol:
