Talk Talk has a thing about old measures, like the ell, thoughts of a pound, probably invoke a mass debate.

A job website emailing me a job that they think i'd be "perfect" for, and should apply today!


Click the link and I applied over a month ago with no communication. Frustrating.

I've been contacted about a job starting at £150k and with bonuses/benefits rising to £300k and they are happy if I commute or occasionally work from home.

Not sure how I can commute to Luxembourg everyday mind you.  Doh
