    I wouldn't call it a Toy Shop, it's not like it's ELC or The Entertainer - it's more of a gift and novelty shop

    And I've got my first Donut shop - yay!

    Aaah, I've never been, I was just going on the fact that we've always referred to them as a toy shop. Duly noted!

    Grats on bagging a donut shop, I did one a month or two ago, and, like many RE jobs, I never see them anymore - I wish they'd tell you in the notes "if you accept this job, you will never be able to MS Donut shop Ltd for Re again in the future", or whatever.

    Nothing much left on RE by time I looked a little while ago.

    With regards to 'the company that cannot be mentioned', how do I get paid by them?

    Thanks.

    They email you an invoice to complete and their pay run is 15th generally so it hits bank account a few days after that. Some assignments are invoiced at end of month as well.
