Now, dont get carried away and forget to negotiate for salary and vacation.
There might be some room for manouver on there part, dont assume what they offer is the best they can do, but be realistic of course.

I would second what Iain said. One municipality offered me 10 days vacation and I said I wouldn't do it for less than 15 and they upped it without batting an eyelid.
(perhaps I should have asked for 20!!!)

Re: Help please. Advice needed after interview.
Congrats!!!
FWIW - I sent thank you emails to those I met on my Recce trip who had agreed to meet me and discuss employment oppotunities with.
Ended up, that neither helped me when I got here however, but who knows when I may need them again.
As a recruiter in an agency, I got my first card the other day, for finding someone work! I thought that was sweet, but I did get alot of cards and pressies from my candidates in the UK too.
