Hello ticketinspector and welcome to you to. The more the merrier here:j

I'm going to try for under £50 for the whole week ... last week I was over by a bit and wasn't even including the weekend! But this week is looking a lot quieter so should be a bit easier, fingers crossed.

Welcome kellysucceeds and theticketinspector I have added you to the list. Let us know how you get on through the week.

Are you really a ticket inspector?

Thanks PointyPenguin. Yes I am really a ticket inspector for a train company. Probably hated by a lot of members on here!

Nah we are non-judgemental bunch. I have nothing against people who work for the trains as I rarely travel by them. It is the bus drivers that get my wrath:rotfl:

theticketinspector

Lol. Well until last February I was a bus driver as well!

You have my sympathy as ticket inspectors and bus drivers seem to take a lot of stick from the general public from my experiences. I do not have a lot of patience, my mouth takes over, this is probably why I could never work in a customer service role:D

:hello: Hi all and welcome newbies!!

NSD for me yesterday, my lovely Dad and StepMum took me and DH out for roast dinner and champagne ... which was nice ... and didn't cost us a penny :j

I'm also very chuffed, having set my heart on a new bathroom suite with a gorgeous walk in shower thingy (over £1200 in B&Q :eek:) to have found the exact same one on ebay for £200 :j!! So I have a mini challenge on the side of this one, to save up to buy it!!

Whats it like being a ticket inspector? I'm in the market for a new career. What do we all do for jobs on here? I'm a student and housewife and I'm bored :rotfl:
