For Goodness Sake 9

1. Give him a bigger clue that you are interested in him; men can’t always work at your subtle levels. 
2. Stop taking the lift from floor 1 to floor 3. Find the stairs. 
3. Be encouraging. 
4. Get at least one small sharp kitchen knife; it’d make steamed vegetables so much easier when you get home after a long day. 
5. Before you fly to Rome learn: please, thank you, yes and no in Italian. Oh, and ‘one small slice of chocolate pizza, please’ 
6. Remind yourself you do not need a title to your story to start your novel. 
7. Apply for the Retail Sector Marketing Communication Mangers job. What the heck you might get it. And if you don’t, you’ll learn a huge amount. 
8. Save loads of money by giving up bottled water. Unless the WHO says the tap water in your town is unfit for human consumption, obviously. 
9. Be nice to the Big Issue seller even if you are not going to buy one today.
