    Smart Mart - I would avoid that one like the plague! Looks really dodogy. They money is too good to be true and the making sure you cancel your membership before three days sounds like it is likely you will have money taken from your bank account.
    Some sites may also be illegal or malicious. Just how do you give an objective opinin about those types of sites anyway - i would imagine they are one in the same and just what do you say in 100 words which would be rlelvant to your audience - do they care how easy the site is to navigate?...the mind boggles!

    Sounds complicated to me too.

    Havent long come off the phone to a posh magazine..they want me to advertise with them but as I have already advertised in Your West Midlands Wedding, Perfect Wedding and will soon be advertising in Hospitality & Events North then I decided that although it goes into posh places that it wouldnt be worth my while. What put me off was the fact that this girl kept saying that everything was lush..Lush is a shop that sells bathbombs either that or lush is a persion who drinks too much. I am feeling a tad intolerant today - I have a stinky headache which is the side effect of some meds that I now have to take:rolleyes: Anyway if this band thing comes off then I shall just stick with that and corporate work with the odd wedding thrown in here and there. I have already said to my friend Ron that I will organise his partnership ceremony in Florida (it means me flying out there as that is where he lives).

    Am having a thoroughly rotten day - I went to cook some chicken for lunch and decided that it didnt smell right so its gone in the bin - now I have no dinner:mad:

    Florida eh? Sounds like a good idea to me :-) hope you've managed to find something to eat.
    I really must update my blog but can't think of a subject (again ) :-/

    Mabel - blog about you and not your business. Write things on new beads you have found etc.

    I rummaged in the freezer and found some Lidl beefburgers (they're not too bad) and some potato wedges which I served with peas and tomato sauce:rolleyes:

    Wow, is this a paid position? Self employed or employed? Either way it is brilliant to put it on your CV and shows that all your hard work and schmoozing has paid off! Well done!

    I have been researching fibre optic cabling today.....woohoo! it is odd though because strangley i am finding it quite interesting. Says something about me i guess.
