Wear a condom, so they won't see the damp patch if an attractive woman interviews you.

Also ask a question at the end. Something like opportunities for progression etc to show you're interested.

I would say have a glass of water if you can contain your shakes. Taking a drink can buy you thinking time.

The other tip for the fourth interview is remmeber who/what you are being interviewed for.

I'll remember that drink thing and ask for a pint of ale. I'll have a good long think ahead of every question.

A girl I interviewed last year was so nervous, she spilled her glass of water all over the table.

Mind you, she still got the job!

And did she spill any on her crisp white blouse? She may have been playing you.

I learnt a lot from my one and only interview ever which was at Poundland. I wasn't well prepared so when the woman asked me about what I knew about the company and I answered "you sell things for a pound", I realised after why the interview ended so swiftly

You were bang on though, right? She seems like a cow, that job was yours.

Where will you be based anyway, Norwich town centre?

I was correct and she said she'd call me either way and never did! Bastard I got a better job anyways

I'll be based wherever they decide to employ me, one is in Dereham, Drayton is just on the outskirts, Mills and Reeve is near the puppet theatre

Maybe the puppet theatre is a colloquial term for Carrow Road

United have the Theatre of Dreams, Norwich have the Puppet Theatre

When calculating budget projections for the future, is it better to use RPI or CPI as the rate of inflation on the costs?

(my phone is nearly dead, it was 100% this morning, used a bit, and now it's sleepy)

I've got no idea tbh. Probably depends on what you are buying and what you want the answer to show.

The difference in them is essentially the calculation basis, plus I think the RPI includes a few extra things.

Well I know some of our contracts rise based on RPI, but from what I read the CPI is the governments official measure of inflation.

In the past I've sort of just added 3% on to it all though. I haven't been in trouble yet.

The Norwich Puppet Theatre is a nationally unique venue dedicated to puppetry housed in the Medieval church of Saint James a Grade 1 listed building, in the city of Norwich, England.
It currently houses a 175 seat raked auditorium, 50 seat Octagon Studio, workshops, an exhibition gallery, shop and licensed bar, and is the only theatre in the eastern region of the UK which has a year-round programme of family-centred entertainment. It plays host to a variety of touring companies from Britain and overseas, provides regular educational workshops for children and adults, as well as training opportunities for theatre practitioners.

The government uses both I think. It uses one for payments it makes and the other for payments it receives, and it is whichever way around makes them look best.

It's not worth running it any longer. The interest isn't there. If someone wants to take over and try to keep it going go ahead but otherwise it's probably to just give up the ghost now really.

Tbh with the World Cup game seemingly getting under way anyone who wants to continue this stuff should head there.

What's the activity like on the other website? Might set up the world cup league there if it's better.

And I was in the very first league in summer 2008 OK

It's alright over there. Complicated though to keep anything in the same place. everything gets jumbled up and difficult to find.
