    Hi all,
    I have been a fad diet follower but at the end I end up paying a lot of money for diets, so now I started this diet, best diet ever the MS diet, I only eat if MS companies are paying, isn't that great?:D

    Gapbuster just came up as "call" on my mobile when they rang last week.


    They called me too, he said he was from Gap but I could not hear him, when I said can you wait, he hung up.

    I did a post office for Gap today. The woman queried if I really wanted that form. I made up an excuse for why I did. So, I express it, and they've changed it to a more logical form on the questionaire. Idiots.

    And I went to the wrong corner shop (right road, 200 numbers up). Ho hum.

    ESA rang me today while I was doing a job. Could I do a job 60 miles away, tonight or tomorrow ? They would increase the rate and pay petrol. Sounded possible until he said, "Oh by the way, you need to take a woman over 30 with you - its a female clothes shop." If I had a spare "woman over 30" I wouldn't be spending the day on a MS !

    Well, perhaps we should get together as I wanted a spare man for a free father's day meal!!!!!!!
    And had as much luck finding one who isn't gathered to the bosom of his family on FD as you did finding a spare woman!

    Doing them first thing before the shop opens seems to be the easiest option. Was discussed before a couple of threads back and this was the favoured method. You can make sure you've got everything you're meant to get without any problems.
    I did this job for the first time a few weeks ago. I hadn't thought of going before they open, so I was there about 11.30ish. I was terrified, but no staff seemed to notice. I did get a few odd looks from passers-by, but nobody questioned me.

    Thanks for your advice- definitely seems to makes sense to do it earlier - just wanted to check it was ok. Have applied so fingers crossed :)
