    I'm planning to mulch it all and make paper bricks for my stove :)

    Dunno, but the stove is sealed so twont effect the house too much.
    Need to see if it'll mulch right, need to soak em for a day or so to get it properly pulpy I'm guessing.
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

    How come? They pay so well and are so understanding with the worlds best proof readers who understand that once you've written something in 20 different ways to say the same thing you really do mean it :rotfl::rotfl:
    I dont mind the fees being low as I only ever used them to fill in gaps....the reports though :mad:

    The last one I did for them I was asked to answer questions that were not in the brief or on the original report, I stood my ground with them and told them were to get off. Obviously I offered to answer their additional questions for an additional fee first. I got paid for it anyway but swore I would never take another one!

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Its all lies, sure I do my fair share, but rotational rules dont allow me to get any more than others. I just happen to be quick off the mark is all:) Maybe I should look further away, i hear the north east is nice this time of year:T

    I like that idea :rotfl::rotfl:
    TBH I think I'm just getting fussier about what I'll do, and I don't like eggs so that rules a lot of jobs out :eek:

    Does anyone on here shop Liverpool? How can you make any money with the price of parking there. £9 for 2 1/2 bloody hours!

    What towns do you shop?
  • I got fair as well


    FAIRLY sure I got 'Fair' on grammar/spelling too. How can I spell a tick box wrong? *rhetorical*


    Trying to decide if I have the energy to do a GFK bank in my lunch hour. The last one I did was very quick, the jobs are fine but the 'YOU MUST WAIT 40 MINUTES' before being served warnings just make me feel it's a bit too much stress for popping out in the lunch hour. If the bloomin' banks/post offices ever opened past 4.30pm so ordinary working folk could mystery shop them/use them as regular customer then it would be nice!

    They're a decent fee as well, I just don't think I have the energy. Wish I could do them after work but their 'no half hour before close' rule cancels that idea too. Never to mind!

    Had a 'Please do a burger assignment!' mass email from Gap, my internal response - not on your nelly till there's any sign of a premium!

    Seriously all the way around liverpool 1 I was thinking this is a really great place to shop I must come back here more often. Witht the price of parking though, not a chance. It must put off genuine shoppers from out of town.

    I live 4 miles from the city and hardly go there because I'm constantly clock watching for the parking, I'd rather go to the Trafford Centre and make a day out of it. I've got to pop into town tomorrow to collect something and I did consider doing a couple of jobs but having two teenagers in tow and the cost of extra parking has just put me off the idea altogether.
