Davie has got himself an interview to be a volunteer at the Commonwealth Games in 2014! He received an email to let him know and he then booked his interview time, for a date at the end of May. I was very pleased for him, and even more pleased when I heard on the Scottish news that only half of the 50000 people who submitted applications have got interviews. I wonder what their criteria were when they were whittling it down. Anyway, good for David to have got this far.
After the heady excitement of returning to work yesterday, today was somewhat of an anti climax. It was one of those days where despite much activity I didn't feel as if I had got as much done as I wanted.
However Ally cheered me up when I arrived home by challenging me to beat him at Pointless; a tea-time quiz show that is indeed pointless but is strangely addictive. You have to give answers that are correct but obscure because the contestant that gives the least popular correct answer wins the point (a thousand people have previously been asked each question so the answers are graded by the percentage of people who got them right.) Much coveted is the "pointless" answer that no one has answered correctly. Alasdair won handsomely but I will return to fight another day.
