Just give it a shot, they can only say No!!

She had a rant and asked to speak to the supervisor. He rang back 20 mins later and told her he had just done her registration and that she is now ready to go and certificate will be here next week.

I HAVEN'T TOLD SIMON YET AS HE'S ON EXERCISE TIL TONIGHT!!!
Well MY OH MY I have some positive news, yes, even more, not only do I have my Registration and TAC stuff all finalised, but it appears I MAY have a job too! Firstly tomorrow I am working in a school up the road, this was the first school I called into today, absolutely gobsmacked! Secondly I have been asked to take on a long term contract at another school, though it's not in the best area and well, might be a little bit rough to be honest. I start there on Friday and we'll see how it goes...
HOW MAD IS THAT EH?! LOL
