Good luck William with your job hunt, I know how horrible it is looking for work. The police job sounds good. I used to work for the police and it was fascinating. Now I work for a criminal lawyers and it is just the same. Lol. I am supposed to be going to Skipton (Market) this summer so looking forward to it. It is part of a trip to visit Emmerdale Village.

Homelessness and sleeping out

LOL. He keeps up most every Brit stereotype without even realizing it. Poor thing's Mom was 100% English and it shows up in M rather often.

Homelessness and sleeping out

Oh, he's certainly naughty but I wouldn't call him bad. Yes - a gold bow tie. I'll try snapping a picture the next time I'm outside while he's screaming bloody murder.

Homelessness and sleeping out

If I didnt have family to fall back on, there have been many times in my life that I could have ended up on the streets.

Good luck on the continuing quest for employment. I really hope you get something you like and you're excellent at doing to enhance the opportunity for onward and upward.

Love the pictures you posted.

Winsome...

Fun videos, thanks! Sorry, I can't afford a donation right now. Recently retired and I don't quite know yet what my income will be. AND, medical bills are pouring in for my broken ankle.

But we're dancing with the demons in our minds

So glad to hear you're invited for assessment on the job you're interested in. I started watching House of Cards a long while back but never seem to have the time to keep up. Pretty good series.

Is it working now for you?

Hidey-Ho, neighbor. I have a journal here, but I'm still hanging on at the other place.

You take care.

Hmmmm...

When it comes to the Job Centre tell them nothing. Lie about everything if you have to. I was sanctioned a few years ago because I didn't apply for any jobs on Christmas Day and Boxing day yet I was honest about yet they sanctioned me. Good luck with the jobs.

[Unreal]

Hmmmm...

Definitely apply. And then ask all your questions during the interview. Always wishing you the best Will.

Never before has a production of The Sound of Music made me root for the Nazi's

I've thought about watching Leverage. Just got through binge watching 5 seasons of Falling Skies. Loved it.

[Shelyn]

Hmmmm...

I would suggest you wait until the interview. Asking questions when they ask you if you have any questions, it be the perfect timing AND would also let you express your willingness to do overtime and have more hours if possible.

[Middle Age Pearl]

Hmmmm...

Yes, apply. Every application provides experience, at the very least.

I like the story idea. The noir/kids combination could be fun. Don't even consider working at a call center.

Hello

Hello. Welcome

[Elaine]

Hello

Hi William. I am from Scotland too but still live here! What part are you from? I am from just outside Glasgow. I was on OD as well and I loved it. I was ploughing my way through loads of diaries and then it vanished and I was sorely disappointed. I now love Bloop although I don't post much as I am too lazy! Welcome.

[Unreal]

Hello

Ditto to what Middle Age Pearl said Hope you don't mind that I added you as a fave. Not too many Easy Diary refugees on here yet... lol

[Shelyn]

Hello

Hope you don't mind but I just came here from ED too and just saw your entry. Minnie had mentioned you in an entry of being here from there, so thought I would stop in and say hey. Guess we'll make the best of another site that allows us to write and wonder aloud.

[Middle Age Pearl]

Hello

Welcome to Bloop!

[~Just the 3 of Us~]

Hello

I'm minnie58. I think you know that although. I'm looking into changing my name to minnie58 me thinks.

[angellee]

Hello

Welcome to Bloop William. Below are two sets of instructions I have tracker about adding favs ... good to have you here!! I know zhnee made a diary. Keep prompting her to write here. I would really like her to come here to write.

These instructions if you aren't using the BETA VERSION of Bloop but will help you once you turn off the Beta Version.

Put your cursor on the THIs DIARY box and a drop down menu will appear. In that menu it will say "ADD FAVORITE". If the diarist is already on your favorites list you won't see ADD FAVORITE.

______

I think you might be using the "BETA VERSION" ... look over to the far right and if you see your Profile pic or just an empty box if you don't have a pic ... put your cursor on the pic/box and a menu will open to the right side ... down towards the bottom is will say, TURN OFF BETA VERSION ... you should go back to the old style Bloop Diary then. I don't see an ADD FAVORITES in the BETA VERSION. Maybe Steve hasn't work that into his BETA VERSION yet.

[angellee]

Hello

Welcome! I've been here for almost as long as this place has been around, but I have had a few diaries. I was at OpenDiary and TeenOpenDiary for several years and made the switch after a bad breakup. I hope you find a home here.

[Love, Rebekah]

Hello

Wishing you the best here at Bloop Diary. So sad about Easy Diary but you will make it here in your new diary home just fine. It seems like a great place!

Hello

Hello fellow refugee! If you figure out how to add an icon pic, please let me know.
