    Was it wrong to throw my FIL in the deep end? He did 19 Egg jobs over 3 days :o

    Although it was DW who organised them for him.
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

  • @Lil_Me - I don't know what RE stands for. It was through Amber Arch

    @jonno1001 - its not a shop, but a place outside (I don't know how much more I can say!) It should be lit, but I'm still scared!



    If you have a reasonable camera (7 megapixels or more) you can usually take the shot from a fair distance away - say 50 metres - and then crop it down on your PC or phone before you upload it.
    This is a trick I tend to use and have never , well once, had a query on my photos.

    Anyway, good luck. Don't be scared, you are just a normal customer as far as they are concerned.
    Have another quick read through of your assignment notes a few minutes before you do the job so that it's all fresh in your mind.

    Hoping it was a female cashier Mimi?? Maybe she was expecting more than just a good report from you. We all know what a charmer you are after all

    You know me so well MN! LOL. Cashiers were male and female, both old and young. It's all good. I thought the visits were fun but took far too long to do. Wish ESA would put the rates to what they were!

    Talking of which, someone has just dropped some pharmacies and the fee has now doubled!!! Wait for them to call tomorrow and then work that mileage ;););)

    I've taken the plunge and am doing some Pharmacies, the enhanced fee is very welcome as well as knowing, thanks to this board, that I don't have to wait for ages until someone agrees to speak to me! :)


    I'm doing a couple of eggs as well, I don't eat loads of eggs but luckily some of the shops my way sell the 4 egg box size which are cheaper as well. Those boxes of the 6 various sized eggs are good value too.

    Mimi will tell you a little secret. Keep your eyes peeled for the clearance shelf/trolley. I got 9 eggs for 50p today. Woohoo!

    What a rip off! I got 12 eggs for 10p in Asda the other evening!! :p

    I know obviously that doesn't help in an egg shop, but I was dead chuffed :D :cool:

    I tend to find organic eggs taste much nicer. Organic milk too. Organic other stuff tastes just the same though.
