Just back from those holidays.

On the flight back the girl sent some cut frankfurter flying... She's sent food flying a lot this week.

I didn't have a bin receptacle, so I used my finished bottle o' pop. About an hour later I thought I would crush it before I handed it to the stewards collecting rubbish...

Cap and slice of frankfurter flew insanely fast about three rows back before I got chance to crush it. I have no idea what it hit on the way, but I got a bunch of funny looks.

Anyway, you could try that next flight.
 
It went well thanks. It took all day though: group exercise, interview, prioritisation task. Should hear result on Friday.

How did your interview go? Heard back?

Ugh, group interviews.

Thankfully here they have a different approach: if they like me I'll be invited to work there for a day to see how I find it. As I'm supposed to help develop a training programme this is hardly a realistic thing, but it gives me an idea of the culture of the place. I asked them to make it two days as I'm too introverted to be any use on one day.

If that works on both sides, then I have to look for a small apartment and work here for up to six months trial period and if that goes well I'm in indefinitely and it's time to move the family south.

I have no idea what they think thus far, although I did see my interviewer noting my request for a two day invite, so that may be a good sign... I'm still kind of hoping something more local will come through. We shall see.

Probably attributed to madcap British humor.
