i got the dear john the first time, got another form in the post about 10 months later out of the blue, sent it back and has been accepted, but heard nothing since (about 6 weeks now)
You gotta keep chipping away at these things all the time, its tough, i have been looking for a job for nearly 16 months now and its very demoralising. Jobs tebd to come out the blue for guys like us, u never know.
Keep smiling it aint the end of the world
