Go for it Heather. You can't get a job you never bother applying for in the first place.

Go for it.
Whats the worst that caould happen.. they offer you the job. <reasoning behind this viewpoint is that if you dont get it nothing has changed and if they do offer it, you have to actually make a decision eek!!>

Good for you, If I could retire now I would but unfortunately thats not an option, redundancy maybe (I will find out on Monday.. maybe :roll:

I don't have a TV

I've got one of those dongles you plug into the computer, but the reception in my flat is terrible (no aerial on the roof), it can't pick up a single channel...

If you get the iPlayer desktop application, you can watch BBC channels over the internet at least.
