    thanks for asking... still has a rash but doesnt look like pox anymore and her temperature has gone back to normal :j :j


    She is absolutely fine this morning in herself... infact she is annoyingly happy and playful and driving me mad! :rolleyes: :rotfl:I'm just gonna keep my eye on her and keep her inside again today.... think it may have been a little viral thing or allergy to something.

    :D B***** kids eh? :D

    Glad she's OK though

  • Johanne - it does sound like a viral rash, my DS has got one at the moment. When is your DD's 1st birthday? I have a DD who is also coming up for her 1st birthday in a few weeks!

    I'm really disappointed with my order total this time. It stands at just over £100 and I only have one road left to collect and I don't normally get orders from this road. I thought the last campaign was bad for me with £250 of orders, but this is much worse. I think I'm going to have to hassle everyone I can to add to it!

    I've phoned round my new representatives and the best order value is £80. It really sounds like a bad time of year at the moment.

    I'll be ordering my SL pack when I place my order, so I'm looking forward to receiving it! :D
    Thank you so much to everyone who post & help with comps! :j

    Collected all but 2 books now, one more order for £26.40 but one guy had a go at me saying no more books even though I'd put my sticky note on the front saying if they didn't want any future books to tick and I won't deliver. He could have left it outside instead of making me knock just to be mean to me :(

    I know we're not supposed to take it personally but its hard not to. Does anyone else skip campaigns, maybe every 3 weeks is far too close together?

    I know what you mean, I sort of wish they were monthly at least. I've just started getting people saying they don't want one next time. They were still happy to have them dropped in a few months though.
    And my male customer is taking his cat through to his mother and says she will probably order so that's good. Only got two orders so far, but need to collect 14 cats tomorrow... So fingers crossed.

    i was thinking of asking my customers if they would prefer every other campaign....people just arent buying every campaign or even looking at the books in alot of cases! It would make my life easier dropping to one territory one campaign and the other the next one as they are 15/20 mins walk apart and so i always end up doing deliveries over two nights and collecting over two nights calling back over two nights etc etc.

    OR i was thinking the problem could also be that in my opinion campaign 6 and campaign 7 had rubbish offers and nothing really tempting in them?? :confused: Alot of my customers stocked up in C5 as things were really cheap too. (The constant sales brochures arent helping either... im making plenty of sales from them but then the items are sold out!! :rolleyes: )

    I don't give them the sales brochures. But i noticed in C8 (i think its c8) the sale brochure is actually in the actual catalogue at the back. :(

    That's a bit daft isn't it... I haven't given the C7 sales brochures out but that's only because I had 40 cats and onll 25 sales brochures...

    I've only found out recently that sets which have the items packed separately are individually priced, which means that you CAN return single items from the set.

    Now I can't imagine why you would want to do that.............::whistle:
