Thanks Maru. Yh tbh it’s good being so busy I hate just sitting around doing nothing so I’m kinda (in a weird way) enjoying this hectic schedule I’ve got going atm. I mean I definitely can work under pressure so I won’t need to worry about that question coming up in the interviews

Funny thing is, I was at work yesterday, we have two warehouses/ offices in the same town (but they’re on the other side of town from one another if that makes sense) and was asked to pick up a Franking Machine from one office and bring it back to the other. Well it was only a 15 min drive and somehow I got a franking machine confused with a toner cartridge and brought that back instead. A lot of back and forth yesterday, at least my colleagues found it funny I suppose

….I don’t know how franking machines are filled in these modern times……probably online …but I recall back in the day, someone saying to me that they’d been to the post office to get their work franking machine filled and how heavy it was carrying it back when it was full…/…anther franking machine true story…

…and you’ll be grand at that interview tomorrow.... @Dogeatdog …

Yes at least we would go on a high.

[AnnieK]

After ranking, I definitely feel like mine was one of the weakest.

I think we all feel like that. It wasn't an easy round

[Beso]

Its really cute everyone pretending they listened every song all way through, but c'mon, get real.

Parmy, the sacrificial lamb of the series.

Parm the lamb. Now deceased.

I did. I listened to each song as I posted it hence why there were big gaps in between each one. And it was a really good week

[Strictly Jake]

Just Jones, Mock and Shaun left to rank

[Kate!]

I listened through each song as well.

That is a pretty amusing mixup, tbh I learned something new today. We don't call them Franks machine. They are just called something less fancy like "postage meters".

I'm sorry for the late response.

I will definitely get my vote in within the next few hours.

I'll just need to listen to the entries first, it looks like a decent round though.

I'm a bit nervous.
