tamping

Contrary to my last post, I had also applied at a local coffee shop, and had my trial and interview today! Learnt how to tamp (the coffee), and have been called in next Tuesday, to get a shirt and I have to bring bank details. Does that mean I have the job..?

I've applied for a job at my local bookshop!

Yep, it's still raining..

the blossoms are finally coming out on the plum trees!

It's still raining, as it has been for the last 3 hours (at least). The puppy's chewing everything he can get his teeth into, including my bare feet, as I couldn't find any socks this morning. I've run out of make-up as well, the only one that I've ever managed to find to suit my skin tone! So I must remember to buy some more tomorrow.

I'm listening to my 'european chillout' playlist. Yes I know, it's a bit embarrassing but whatever, it's the perfect music to listen to when the rain hasn't let up outside for more than 3 hours, and there's nothing to do. On that note however, my brother has to be picked up from school in about 15 minutes, so I'm going to have to make a dash through the flood that is our garden, the river that is our driveway, and into my car, which I'm pretty sure won't start it'll be so waterlogged! Anyway, enough of the negativity.

I might continue into the barony of shoppingdom to see if I can find Father Bear a present for Sunday, which is Father's Day. He asked for a scarf, as he lost the amazing blue one Mum and I got him in Laos. Pity. I'll see what I can do.

Well, the river that is my garden calls, so I best answer. Bisous xx

puuuuuuup!

I'm sitting at the dining room table, drinking luke-warm coffee and downloading music. The sky is bright blue outside; it looks like spring is coming, finally. Meanwhile, it's been ages since I've written! I was woken up this morning by the puppy biting my face.
