Visited a client and secured a $$$ (actually SEK SEK SEK) deal.

what's wrong with saying "£££ deal", oh wannabe britlet?  :P

edit: well done, anyway.

I think that's how the saying goes, that's all.

So, that would be a ££ deal?  I get 11.8495 SEK to my £.

last summer, i bought a miniature lemon, a miniature orange and a fig tree from an online garden place thingy.  they arrived, and were doing mighty fine, until about six weeks ago, when all three started to die, even though i did everything i was supposed to do - bring them in for the winter, etc., etc.

i was so pissed off.  usually, being terribly british, i don't complain, but this time i did: i sent them an email and said how disappointed i was.

no reply for days, so i assumed that was that.

then, today, i received an email saying they were sorry my trees had died, and are sending replacements for all of them!

:woohoo:

result!  what great service - i thought they might offer me a gift voucher or something, for a few squids, but they're sending me twenty squids worth of tackle. marvellous.  ;D

A headhunter called me today, saying that my CV is a perfect match for what he's been looking for, and his client wants to interview me. :o

Not sure. I suspect it might be cos the work description is exactly the same. They've upgraded the money, though.
