Surely... (and I'm grasping at straws here), if they were shutting up shop they'd have cancelled all the jobs, not just some of them?

I'd be very sad to see them go, they have become one of my faves in recent months.

I'd have thought they would have told us, if they were closing, and just cancelled all the jobs too... It's all a bit odd...

Hey Guy

Won some money on line instead of filing reports!! Had to tell you! Mysterious Girl put me right on the adverting policy and I was totally off topic. So edited...hope that was right thing to do.

If its any consolation isn't it better to have assignments canx than complete them and not get paid??

Mine were for Thursday. 2 x electrical and a mobile phone warehouse. I emailed them to ask why (before seeing on here that others had had theirs cxd too) and am awaiting the courtesy of a reply. Got a "hot and spicy" electrical retailer job on Monday which is still listed , waiting with baited breath for that to go as well.

Looks like we have to wait and see if you get an answer.

Better watch Robert Peston (?) on the Beeb then, he seems to be the usual bearer of bad tidings these days!

Robert Peston seems to cause the bad tidings! Wasn't he accused of starting the Northern Rock meltdown, reporting on the fact that 'everyone' was withdrawing their funds when in fact all that did was make the few who were, become everyone?!

Off topic I know

Yup! That's right, Timmne!

Very off topic, but very true, unfortunately...

Hey Guys

I have just signed up to Mecca games and for £10 stake won £68 on the slots. According to the T&C's they sould credit me £10 withn 24 hrs and Greasey Pam should give me £15 cash back too.

The question is am I really £93 up on the day?

......And which advertising company do you work for exactly?!

kman

Peston's in China at the moment, so he might not have any bad news about the UK for a change...

Sorry for going even further off topic...
