    Give them a ring, mimi. They are very approachable about paying expenses when jobs have been hanging around.

    Awww thanks babes. You are the best :D Thing is I am in MISSSARALEIGH land anyway as I have 2 other visits for GR there on Saturday. I could always say something like that visit normally takes forever and I would happily do it for an extra fee? What the hell. I'll try it anyway.

    I always find it a bit dodgy taking photos of a bank!
    definately there are circumstances when its a bit dodgy, thats why i suggested a voice memo too, far less obvious and just as useful ive found, failing that good old pen and paper learnt once the hardway and thankfully havent since

    Has anyone ever been offered a premium or an extra fee for a visit on GR? They have a travel shop that has been there all week and it needs doing by Saturday. I could do it, but I am not keen on them as they take a long time. Could I call and beg for some more moolah or would they just tell me to shut the hell up?

    Oh and GR and the munching company that cannot be named both pending for tomorrow!

    Nothing to lose in trying!!
    Hopefully you'll get a female on the phone and you can turn on the charm - that seems to be your usual trick to get you what you want!!

    Done it. Wooohooo! Thanks PROSHOPPER and MONKEYNUT. :D:D:D

    Oh and for those who shop at MORRISONS, if you buy THE SUN today it has a £6 off £40 spend voucher. You might as well get one if you shop there and spend that amount. HTH.

    Just out of interest how much did you ask for and get? Obviously not the actual figure so we don't get shouted at!! But percentage wise?

    x and z are independent, z is not a part of x. Total you get paid = x + y + z
