Memo to Macy
From Sensible Self
Before the interview remember:-
1. Do NOT under any circumstances attempt to trim your own fringe. It is NEVER a good idea. Why exactly did you think it would be different this time?
2. Do not assume that interview suit, last worn February 2008, will still fit. Not if you lived on Haribo gums whilst giving up smoking it won't.
3. Shoes. Remember the too-tight suit needs matched with SHOES, not your usual wellies or trainers. (The following are also hopeless: cute blue silk pumps, Uggs, black sandals, green eco shoes, vertiginous spike heels, moccasins, flip flops, everything in patent leather, brown sandals, walking boots, furry slippers, striped ballerina slippers..chiz)
Never mind princess, if all else fails, remember you are not yet being interviewed as style editor for Grazia.

I can think of some sectors where all three factors would be to your benefit.

The number of fringe trimming disasters I've conducted in my life must be in triple digits by now. :) Apart from all that, did it go ok?
And I sent out my silly homemade ecard to everyone yesterday but couldn't find an email address for you miss M. If you want it, drop me a line! :)

I'd love to have a fringe to trim...

Sensible Clarks shoes. That'll impress anyone. But I'd never feel guilty about Haribo, especially if it was Tangfastics. They're great. Take some to the interview. It might impress them.
Good luck.

For my last interview I bought a very very smart jacket from M&S.
On my return I found that the ticket was still in - so I took it back.
Unfortunately - you can't stick your fringe back on.

Mr Musgrove - Unfortunately NOT interviewing for job in agricultural sector. Wellies OUT.
Ms V - Now I'm trusting you NOT to pass on my details to purveyors of double glazing, viagra or dating sites...then again...
Rog - SO WOULD I!!
Mme DeF - Sigh. Told myself tht if I could give up NICOTINE the HARIBOS would be a doddle.
Wrong again.
Kaz - Did you not get a second interview??? Unlucky jacket deserved to go back then...

The state of a couple of our libraries we'd be impressed if you turned up in waders!
