  • Dundee is the 4th city- as in, there are only 4 and it is the naffest, tho, we are getting a new V&A museum shortly.

    I think you'll find that Inverness is a city too. And Paisley is going for City status next time they consider these things so Dundee won't be the naffest city after that :D

    I think it Dundee that call themselves the 4th city, isn't Perth one too? The |"Fair City", there must be a few more than 4 then, (now doesn't feel so bad living here)

    There are six cites in Scotland -

    Inverness
    Aberdeen
    Glasgow
    Edinburgh
    Dundee

    And the one everyone forgets about, Stirling. Perth used to be a city and has applied to become one again in this years beanfest.

    Thought Inverness and Stirling were towns. Clearly I was misinformed.

    The payment on the 10th normally goes through fine, it is just the way their system displays it when the pay day is a weekend.

    Hi everyone

    I am after some advice. I have been away from MS for a while and have taken on a few jobs again, I'm self employed so whilst other business is quiet have time to carry out some visits.

    However, I have accepted a visit for a supermarket and it is very confusing which departments to visit! Naturally there are rotations but impossible to tell which of the other departments to visit (or all of them?) it is a very large store. Have meat down as a specific department my question is should I also visit cafe, deli, bakery, etc etc etc the questionnaire appears generic and covers everything.

    Many thanks for any assistance given. :)

    That is strange since to mystery shop you have to be self employed since none of the main companies employ you therefore have to register as self employed! They would know that since is is a legal requirement!
