    I did two mystery shops last week but now have that awful situation of not having any booked in!!!!

    There seems to be a real shortage of assignments in my area at the moment, and they are being snapped up instantly! I need to check more often, obviously, but that is just not possible at work!! Gah!!!

    am thinking about doing some ironing soon......
