    Fellow glaswegians. I feel I just did you a favour by saving you from a hideous meal in a chain pub on sauchiehall st. I'm about to write a scathing report.

    Weeg, I was in the one at George Sq today, it was not an MS but I had to complain to the manager and now writing a letter of complaint to HO it was hideous honestly, staff, food area everything!!!
    :money: giving me & my darling boys a better cheaper life :o:A

    Not that chain - the RE chain that used to be a wine lodge, next to the ABC. The one on West george st was fine. But I'm never going to attempt to eat another one of those huge burgers or, as i did today, 2 halfs in 2 different branches.It meant i knew exactly what the second one should have tasted like, but didn't.

    Naturally, I failed to get a receipt for the first one though. Put a blank jpeg with my report.
  • I seem to have stopped getting alerts emails randomly today. Earlier on I wasn't sent one after someone had posted and the same thing has happened just now too. I am logged in and subscribed and I haven't done anything differently :confused: Yet in between these two that weren't sent I had one :confused:

    That sometimes happens if you havent been back into the alerts page since last alert (being signed in ofcourse) for me.xx

    Yeah I know if you get an email and then you don't log back in you don't get any more emails until you log in but I logged in and then saw there was a new one even though I had logged in after the last alert to check that one!

    The same happened again not long ago so I'm really puzzled as I have never had that happen:confused:

    I think I may have the same jobs with the same company. Also my first job with them. I think the costs are about £20-£25 ish per test. I assume I'll be reimbursed, I noticed that when you raise an invoice it gives you the option to put the cost of any purchases. I hope I will be anyway, I don't need 2 eye tests!

    Hi Lil Me

    Thanks - I might ask them will let you know

    I have 4 to do.
