If only it came with a wage increase...... It will be recognised certification though which is good for my CV.

Just a quick update (and sorry I've not checked much on everyone else) but its all been a bit chaotic getting everything sorted to go on holiday with the kids

So really just updating to say there has been a bit of practical communication with XW which has been fine. I've been noticeably lighter in tone compared to XW.

I also engaged in a bit of pursuit when I collected the kids. She was very upset, probably because she won't see the kids for 10 days and she is a little anxious about the holiday. As I was about to go I said something like

'I know life is different now, but I wish you were coming with us'

I was upbeat and positive as i left with cheery kids in tow.

Right I have to get up for a plane so need some sleep.

Hope you all have good weeks
