    You have a short memory.

    This is what you told us earlier, which resulted in the replies you have taken exception to:

    Sorry Quentin but I think you are being very rude for no reason, yes I did say that but in a later reply I said its not my problem meaning that I will not do anything about it. I notice you are now focusing on this issue alone and have not ventured any further comments about vulnerable females etc etc The recent riots have shown that there are mindless thugs out there who will stop at nothing to cause damage and injury and that it can happen anywhere. And I do agree that it isnt just females who are vulnerable.

    And I have tried to point out to you how this criticism has come down on you by way of replies to your own input!

    had followed her home from the supemarket where she had withdrawn cash
    I understand your concerns, but taking cash from an ATM is public which I wouldn't expect to the case for you.
    Won't you be doing it in a private business environment like an office?
    If it's public like a shop then I would expect you to go to a back room to get the readies rather than hand them over in the shop.

    Yes con tricks can happen, but if you are receiving cash in private then no-one should know you have it, so no-one should be targetting you specifically.

    If your role is changing then ultimately you have three choices - resign, accept it or take redundancy.
    They can't forec you into a new role, but if you old role doesn't exist anymore then it might mean redundancy.

    Insurance for use in connection with an EMPLOYERS business is not that cheap cover you get for using the car for your own business,
    For me the maximum I had to pay one year was £20.

    All other times it's been free regardless whether it was my own business or an employer's business.
    I'm not cynical I'm realistic :p

    I don't think you'll need to refuse, the insurers won't allow a lone female to transport an amount of cash on the same route at the ame time every week. Ask them to check this first, before you ask about their risk assessment and security for you and your vehicle.
