Welcome to my Sunday 👄
I woke up far too early for a Sunday.

So did washing machine.
Hubby and younger son went off to do the food shopping.
Time for Henry to come out for a little play.

Third episode↓
Elton John was at number 1 with a double A song. I bought the 7" and 12" versions.

I got chatting to a parent who I knew from doing my previous Lollipop job. From last Wednesday, they have been told (The staff in Tesco), they will refuse to serve people if they don't wear a facemask.)
Now on to get some meat. 
Once done there.
Just to do a bit of top up shopping until tomorrow.

Back home..
Nice bit of soup to warm up with.
Got the tablet ready for the interview.
I got changed.
Pity I can't wear a badge which I found to wear at the interview↓
Things didn't go as planned 😨
I was second to be interviewed.
During the interview,
I was asked "If I would go for another ward, if I didn't get this one?"
(Red lights flashing!)
Waited in the waiting room to find out my fate.
My gut feeling says no.....
As normal, I didn't set my expections to high and my gut was right....
I didn't get chosen!
My interview notes went into the recycle bin! 
Now to wait for the gloating to start that I didn't get it!
My hubby was quite upset I didn't get chosen.
I gave him a big hug and sloppy 💋
As we have watched "House of Cards", I am glad I am out of it!
Tea time.
The steak was awful  😶
Quick catch up of the newspapers.
