I'm doing one for RE on Thursday but my brief does say that if no one deserves the reward to not give it and throw it away, as it has no monetary reward. I hope I do get to give it :j

Must have missed that lol

Mine barley said anything to me lol went in the bin.

Although did give my first underground certificate the other day

Only got 3 assignments scheduled for this week and nothing beyond that. But I think its cos I'm getting really picky due to petrol prices and fees going down. Have given ESA the boot, RE were sacked ages ago along with GAP as their fees are too low to bother with.

Beautiful sunny day here in Hastings-managed to sort out the bookie issue-and they even got a cert
Had a fab spa afternoon (helping a friend with her birthday pressie) and off to dinner later which is an MS.
Day definitely improved
Thanks for the offers of help.

Agreed!

fees down, petrol up! = smaller area and MS companies ringing me up desperately looking for assignments in areas I used to cover but no longer will.

Noticed a higher volume of calls and jobs being available, fair enough though - people wont stand for low fees, especially as we're squeezed with fuel..

I totally agree - the return after travelling and parking has to be worth it and in many cases nowadays it isn't:(

On another point, why is it that G.. pay £x for the reimbursement but the medium meal actually costs more - reimbursement doesn't actually cover the meal?

Because lots of people will do it even if they paid no fee, just reimbursement, that's why!

Am I able to take my child on a restaurant dine in for gap? It doesn't say that I have to be alone and can take up to 4 people so assuming I can?

Is it Pizza? If so, yes, I use to take my kids.
