I keep trying to find that one episode of QC where Raven plans to
increase business using sex... but since all the strips have titles
which are part of the punchline rather than being descriptive, and
Google can't read image text, it's proving nearly impossible to find. :-(

If you put it that way it seems to make sense. No wonder that we have
repeatedly tried to get it into his thick head. I wonder why that didn't
work...

So I *finally* sent them my CV. Apparently they're now considering it.
Also: Cambridge is actually *further away* than Coventry. Idiot. (I was
thinking of Oxford...)

Well, see what the pay looks like; if it's a reasonable wage, look at
what the cost of living is around Cambridge; see if they can help you
with housing. It never hurts to ask.
