Yes, I'm doing a few of these. It's anyone's guess how many you get though, really. You can always give them to friends or just consume as many as you can, yourself! At least they're healthy products!

Looking at the brief seems you cant do this? Do you think it would be ok.

Don't even think about keeping these for more than an hour or two (especially in the back of your car). What happens when they ferment has to be seen to be believed - my kitchen ceiling still bears the battle scars of the last lot!!!!

OOOOpps! I never did make a good liar, and having to guard your words is hard work.
Now done.

I got the impression they would be ok in the fridge???

I got some yesterday evening and left them in the car for about 3 hours and nothing happened (thank goodness!)

There are still some of these jobs available in North Wales and West Cheshire. I have left a note on the alerts thread. Hope that is ok to do that with this company.

Is this MS company beginning with A? for supermarkets?
I had an email last night and replied immediately but not heard anything...presume this means I was not picked:cool:? I thought they were going to reply to everyone ?

Yes, I got all 3 jobs I asked for, which I was very surprised at and they've sent out 2 more emails this morning as they still have jobs in this area. I presume you are not in this part of the country?

You were lucky! In theory they should be OK especially in the fridge (I bought 2 today and drank them immediately and there was no sing of any fermentation). But believe me, its not easy to tell from the outside and, when they do go off, they go like Fujyama! I had one blow its top in my kitchen (nothing to do with this job at all) - all I did was take it out of the fridge and then go to the cupboard for a glass. Literally in 1 second the top blew off and I had purple gunge all over the ceiling, my clothes, my hair and all the kitchen shelves ! I laughed afterwards but it wasn't funny at the time! Also, the stuff sets like concrete so, if you miss any blobs when you are clearing up, you need a steam cleaner to shift the stuff.

Sounds like they're very busy trying to allocate all these jobs in such a small amount of time. I've never done one of these before but I'm curious to know why we need to do what we're supposed to in the brief ie not consume the product.
