You really think so, Skippy, or just pulling my leg?

TNC is a quality NGO, they would be great to work for. And the job sounds very interesting....

And Chirimoya would also be ideal in this post. :)

I actually concur that my Green Team mate Chiri would be excellent for it and told her so by PM the minute I saw this listing.

So I second the motion for Chiri to go for it! ;)

If I do apply and she does too, I will be cheering her on. I can think of no finer candidate to lose to. I mean that, and I think she knows that I do.

Thank you, dear friends, for this vote of confidence, but I'll be giving it a miss.

If Keith applies and gets it, I will consider the role of communications officer. :)

From Green Team to Dream Team!
