    I don't think you should bother with the moat until after your exam, the crocodiles should be ok til Tuesday and as for looking after the pool I know where you can get a plug for 88p and problem solved!

    Good luck on Monday by the way, what time is your exam so we can all send you good vibes at the moment you turn over your paper....:j

    Ah if only they were all over on monday! I have two more after! Monday is 2pm. :rolleyes:

    BTW I'm pretty sure the crocodiles will die, they can't breathe because they keep inhaling algae. They're not too bright...

    ive noticed on quite a few occasions that gfk are advertising on their website for expired jobs

    for example i looked on their website on l8 friday evening 15/5 for jobs and there were none

    went to the website on saturday to find that they have 2 jobs listed which you can carry out upto the 14/5 and when you try to book it - the system says theirs no jobs available

    they need to update their system more properly

    I think that tends to be the ones where people haven't bothered doing the job and it's been automatically released from their account. If you ring them up and tell them when you can do the job, they can usually extend the date and book it onto your account.
    Here I go again on my own....

    I find that quite a useful feature as it alerts me to released jobs and as Becles says a call often means it can be rescheduled for me.

    Good luck with the exams btw, even though I don't know you!
    I have one on Tuesday and 3 more after that myself!


    I accepted a job with GFK which the last day for completion was last Friday, and have just emailed them about it - is it likely they can reschedule it?

    Yeah I am - it's good to take a break every now and again though. Nearly finished going thru everything... then I get to go through it again! Joy. :D

    I'd assume if they're still online then they still need them done, so I'd think so.
