Thanks everyone for the good wishes for my birthday and job interview.

Since the interview I've thought of several aspects that I think could have gone better, so I wasn't surprised to hear that I was unsuccessful.

A bit of a disappointment, but at least I'll have plenty of time at home to read the book and watch the DVDs I got for my birthday. :wink:

Sorry you didn't get the job, Katharine. Fingers crossed that another (perhaps even better) opportunity comes your way.

Enjoy the book and the DVDs!

Yes John, still some cake left - I was very good and only cut us a small slice each, so hopefully will last a day or two. :)
