    Gosh I am becoming such an accomplished liar. I did a fitness place where you buy trainers. The guy said it was to check which kind of runner you are?? He asked if I had been trained and I fibbed and said I had been a champion at one time. And had been West of Scotland tennis champion. Well remember I did put in my tips thing to think out and rehearse your scenario.

    Liar liar pants on fire!!!!

    .... and I've just got home from buying some wonderful stuff that's going to help me lose one and a half stones (all that flab I had hidden under my big coat while I was in the shop).

    Now I'm wondering where I'm going to lose this weight from??? I really don't think 5 and a half stones is a healthy target weight for me!:rotfl:

    Go try 10 minutes on that treadmill. You will get reported as a missing person.

    I have just received an email from TNS telling me that I have been sacked. This is due to my account being inactive for such a long time. I am honestly not bothered. Their pay is rediculously low for the amount of work you have to do.

    On another note, has anyone ever done any work for RQA Europe?

    I've recently completed an unusual project with them - my first - although I've been registered since early last year.

    I have to say one of the best - although quite involved - jobs I've ever done but with a fee & reimbursment that more than made it all worthwhile! :D:j:D

    Similar to the company that doesn't like to be mentioned though so can't say anything but I would recommend them!

    So no trouble with payment then? How long did they take to pay you? I've just done a very unusual job for them too but haven't heard from them since - was just wondering about payment.

    I have read the first page and am aware of what you can claim for. However, my question is, can we claim for car park/ pay and display tickets via the tax return? Your responses will be much appreciated.
    Thank you in advance :)

    No trouble at all - fee has gone through today & everything else needed etc was paid in advance.
