Was there ever any doubt? They met you, that's all they need to be impressed.

Can't sleep. Too excited.
Parents (and importantly grand-parents) find out in a few hours - they'd all gone to bed by the time the email arrived (11:58pm)
Then it's down the job centre to show them the email and negotiate my end date of claiming benefits. Then off to the CAB for what is likely to be my last day of volunteering and to be super-nice to my supervisor as she is my referee.
Then rest-of-the-day will be no doubt spent planning on re-organising my life. Drs dentists, gym, all need to be contacted - then there's finding a flat! (broadband essential!!)
Possibility mentioned in 1st interview of temporary accommodation on the research campus itself so will investigate that as a stop-gap solution.
Finally - I can pay off my loans, clear my overdraft - have a pension! Complain about dole scroungers and tax rates, maybe go shopping or save up and go on holiday...
The endless possibilities.

>>I reckon you'll be running that place in 5 years <<
Well...
25 employees at the minute - it is set to expand over the next few months if the projected business plan of the next few years in terms of biopharmaceutical R&D bears out - projected worldwide figures of 42 billion are estimated.
Shares pacakages are available.
Almostly certainly as the company expands and grows there will be opportunities to develop my career, starting with the opportunities in designing a purchase control system.
