Yes, we have both ticked the boxes and my dad has all the business things down (he owns his own business). I don't know whether it's worth emailing to find out as i'd love to do one, as would my Dad!

Yes I would email. They disappeared off my screen on the last batch and I mailed them. They put them back on straight away.

It's good to try new things. That's one of the bonuses of MSing for me. Mind you some things you don't necessarily want to do all of them again!

I never used to drink hot drinks either! I tend to have a mocha when I do these jobs, it's a little sweeter, so easier for me to drink

Have you not done any work with them?? :rolleyes:

No, I haven't done anything for them so far but get emails every so often.

Just noticed that these are also available in Hampshire & Suffolk - sorry for missing them out!

Me neither!! I did my first french sandwich shop last week and had to order a hot drink, so I went for a tea (even the smell of coffee makes me feel nauseous!). It was pretty gross though, so won't be over-anxious to get another one!

I'm not going to wade in to the arguement on the GAP briefs but I read the notes as quite ambiguous too. But went on the logic that if they dont pay me for it I've not actually lost anything as I was a- passing and b-needed to use their services anyway.

But come to write up the report with the POP what do we put in the code box as they dont have central letter stamps anymore (or am I being thick)?

They do have a central letter stamp, and i think you will be paid for pop and no purchase.

Is anyone seeing loads of a certain Senario 1, 2, 3, and 4s for gfk? I see lots, some of the same thing repeated. But the restrictions say you can only make one call per organisation, So why are gfk sending me loads, am I not reading it right????
