:AI'm so lucky to have all you as my 'virtual friends'.:A
I'm feeling much more positive today, sorry I hate me when I'm down, goodness knows what you lot think!!
I've managed to pick up a few odd Mshopping jobs: a couple of emails...nothing like sitting on your bum in front of the TV and getting paid for it! :j A local (ish) small supermarket, a petrol station (free petrol-almost as good as sitting on me bum!):j a burger..:mad:yuk - but they paid me extra for doing it as they were desperado!!:j
Aslo had an email from a company I applied to a couple of months ago saying they were looking for people in my area to order food online, they pay a small fee for writting the job up and I get to keep the food:jI cannot wait to get started on these, hopefully they are as good as they sound. Hmmmm, now thats even better than sitting on me bum, sitting on me bum, ordering online and getting free food (do you think I can sneak some chocolate in there??)
Love you all, you nice peeps!

Erm ShelleyC, can you remove those hob nail boots now please? My bum is numb!MFW - We've only gone and blooming done it!May 2013:j0 -
Glad your feeling better, I just resigned from GB as they peed me off which their 'Can you do xxx today, No, why not I'll give you extra?' UM no I really can't do today and when I suggest another day they end up scheduling me for the wrong time, so I have to cancel which makes me look bad and they give me an audit for Sept which I didn't even agree to! OK rant over, they just annoyed me which their attitude sometimes, except the nice Australian girl who used to ring.
So now have to find some decent banks and supermarkets to do!0 -

I know exactly what you mean, one of their staff rings me regularly, he is difficult to underastand and quite abrupt. I have agreed to do quiet a few jobs on a certain date and a certain time, when I log on he has added them for a completly different date and time! I stay with them as a lovely Australian man phoned me once, he made me go all of a quiver:rotfl:.
RE are really getting on my t**s lately, when you accept a job where the date has already passed, they ask you to email them to arrange a date, I did this on Friday night, on Saturday I get an email saying the 'telephone call has been imported' and therefor assignment ready to be written up, I email again explaining that I havn't done the job yet and am waiting for a date, next thing I get an email telling me I have lost 2 points and they have released the job from me as I had not set a date:mad::mad:. I emailed (again) expressing my annoyance at this, had an email back two days later basically saying I lied as they have no record of any emails from me:mad:. I promtly emailed back copying in the previous emails and asking if they wanted any more proof:rotfl:. Thats me sacked then!
I bought a fabulous gardening mag...you listening GG:rotfl:?. Its called Grow Your Own, fabulous advice for newbie growers like me, so hubby has bought me a subscription to it for my birthday (via Quidco of course!):jSo thats me reasurred that I will get a prezzy I want and him sighing with relief that he doesn't have to think!:rotfl:
I have some small shoots coming through in my potato bucket and a few leaves showing in my 'salad leaf pot'. Hopefully they will not drown in this dreadful wet weather we are having. Reading my magazine I know that this wet then warm weather is no good for tomatoes or potatos so thats me stuffed then!:rolleyes:
I think this weekends bootsale will be called off due to the poor weather:mad:
My puddy is my new best friend, I think she must be hungry as she is currently giving me lots of attention!
Anyway, i'm off to bed now....yawnnnnnnnnnn

What a horrible weekend! (Weather wise that is!)
I did two MShops yesterday, the problem being one was to a 'hardware' type store, I managed to spend almost three times the fee! Suprise, suprise this was mostly on the garden..ahem actually it was all on the garden. Oh well at least I had a bargain, a third off:rotfl:
I have made up for it today by doing four web based surveys so thats £20 earnt.:j
My radishes are sprouting well, as are my potatos (even though hubby covered them up too quickly!). They are just about sprouting again.
My strawberry plants are looking healthy, I may have to get some MShops that allow me to buy cream to go with them:rotfl:.
No suprise that the boot sale was called off due to the dreadful weather:mad:
Hubbys been paid and its my payday at the end of the week also:j.
I have managed to lose a very important piece of paper:mad:.
I'm feeling much more positive than last week, thanks to all you lovely people on here :j.
As GG would say the :jhave it!!

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
