@Cheryl I got the job here quite easily to be honest - through word of mouth - I knew my predecessor and his predecessor as well even though I worked for a different company, we all had a very specialist skill set so luckily not a lot of competition!


I will put a separate post about recent apartment rental problems and sneaky landlords!

Thank you for taking the time to respond.


We will be waiting for this post, which already looks interesting. 1f601.svg
