well done TLC hope you get the job, fingers crossed for you. Hope they let you know soon.

I enjoyed the day out, liked the practice, it's small but very friendly and helpful, so I felt really happy there.
The downside of the job is it being so far from home, and renting a room, plus petrol back home, will swallow up probably all except £50 or so for the four days working away. I need to work out exactly what the costs would be, as although my desire is to train finally, with my hubby out of work since Xmas we do need income to keep our current place going.

They are really nice though so I hope I get the offer, but if not then it wasn't meant to be, and I wish them well in their venture.

hell yes!

well, its done, i just have to play the waiting game now!

I have spoke the the agency man who said they have already given feedback to him. He said they were very impressed with me, so maybe the nerves didn't show too much!!

whew! mine's near King's Lynn - 160 miles from home (what a nutter I must be!)

Keeping my fingers crossed for you as well, let's hope we have something to celebrate on here this week....

let's show them that you don't need to be 18 and fresh out of school to get a place..

hey, you must be almost my twin!

I've been nursing for three years (all in practices, except college stuff and my own animals, one year in a TP), wished I'd started much earlier, and I too have an interview in a TP to train tomorrow (hope we aren't going for the same job though, that would be a shame!).

Good luck (if it's not the same position!, maybe tomorrow will be a lucky day for us both.

Hi, Good luck tomorrow.

I think having all that wildlife experience will def help in your position.

I dont know what you mean by going backwards to go forwards....... I would not have though training to become a QVN was a backward step....... more a giant leap forwards, but you will see that once you start to train even if you are not aware of what a difference it will make to your knowledge and understanding at the moment, believe me it will.

Your 10yrs experience will stand you in good stead for the hard slog ahead.

I think i just regret the fact i never did it sooner.... but i couldnt afford to. so saved up until i could do the training, pay the rent and the bills and have savings in case of emergency!! i say backwards..... cos im cross with my age, lol!!

thanks guys, you lot are awesome x

Just go in be yourself and listen to what they have to say and try not to just do what you normally do, just in case they might not want you to do it that way. Go in really open minded! :D You'll do brill i'm sure!! Lots of luck hun! x

Well I can empathise! Be yourself is about as much as I can offer.

I think the questions will come to you on the day.

Good luck n go for it. Let us know how you get on.
