    How sad am I: was in town today and looked for somewhere with free parking near my MS place ready for tomorrow morning :o. Well, they don't exaclty pay much and I'm not spending my hard-earned pennies on parking!

    Also, a question about Gap: do they only add new assignments on the website mid-month? Does that mean there will be nothing new now until after the 10th September (-ish)? :confused:
  • Hiya Dormouse I have checked Gap at various times and found assignments on there doesn't only seem to be on certain dates.

    with regards to the retail sector, and mystery shopping I have one tomorrow and the papers are forecasting huge queues at a certain high street store due to pricing changes. Make sure you have enough change for the meter or get a free space

    I had an email from TNS saying I've been unsuccessful in my application. :o

    I emailed them to ask why and I was told that they grade you on a variety of criteria including speed of response etc.......i.e. how long you take to do the questionnaire. OOOOPS! I had a phone call and wandered off for ages before going back and finishing it and this has obviously helped fail me. Be warned peeps....make sure you know the manual thoroughly and no pauses whilst doing the test! They don't warn you about this beforehand.

    Am quite gutted really.....hey ho!
