    Arrrgghhh, point them my way.

    you 18, 19 or 20 by any chance??

    think alcohol ID visits :)

    don't suppose it's you who got the byres road / great western road underground sandwiches?
    (I hope that's not so specific it's against the rules to ask)

    Never happens to me either :( I couldn't imagine doing this job without a car! I live within walking distance of my city centre and a couple of neighbourhoods, but I get so much work beyond that.

    Yeah this is why I have to be very picky about the shops I take on, they all have to be in the city centre / west end or somewhere I was heading anyway.

    Sometimes MSCs will be nice and fund some public transport though!

    grrr cinemas changing screening timings last minute.

    cant go before 19:15 inbrief
    checked last week and they had 2 films shortly after that time, checked today

    and the film i was going to watch has changed to 19:00 so cant do that,
    all others not similar time or moved an hour later due to release of 2 new films today

    looks like its going to be a later screening than I had planned

    ohh did he ?
    I may email him if hes still around.
    dont want to ring his mobile if hes finished work for the weekend:j

    actually confused now as brief says

    THE FILM TIME MUST BE:
    Between 7:00pm and 9:00pm ONLY
    YOU MUST enter at LEAST 15 MINS
    BEFORE THE START TIME.

    yet cover screen says

    >Friday/Saturday/Sunday nights only./Film starts between 7.15-9.00 p.m.

    Perhaps accounting for 15 minutes of adverts?
    Tis a bit odd.
