More questions to update on GFK if you haven't noticed message.

And they still haven't fixed the routing, if I don't have an account with a client or target then that should be the end of questions about that target.

Hmm, that's odd - mine worked alright earlier, but there were only three or four new questions for me.

quick question for any video shoppers - have you have had additional grief from airport security with equipment in hand luggage ?

Ive only taken it before when Ive had checked luggage in the hold but going on a day trip and wondering peoples experiences ? Obviously Im not going to be wearing it going through scanners - thats asking for trouble but in a carrying in a hand luggage bag.

I took it in hand luggage before and never had any issues with the security.

Never taken a camera through, but I've had to take a electrical continuity tester through before. I generally take batteries out and draw their attention to anything a bit strange before I hand the bag over, and they're always fine about it.

The only time I've ever had a problem is I carry a credit card sized, covered blade, casecutter in the back of my wallet. I generally forget it's there. I must have taken it on planes 5 times before they spotted it and made me chuck it away.

Yes - same here when using Chrome on Windows 8. Mobile version via Android seems to work fine.

Just started doing MS's again after a few years absence, fees have dropped quite a lot especially with MF. RA appear to have taken on a lot of clients since I last used them!

Allocator madness, part 9746... Just been offered a TNS phone shop 240 miles from my home. My stunned response met with the words: "Well, you did it once before - so we just wondered..."

I travel occasionally with my work and will sometimes pick up a mystery shop if it's convenient. I do find I'm then approached to do the same one if they are stuck. On at least one occasion I was able to help.

I've never allocated MS jobs but I have tried to find relief/ bank staff to cover shifts. Often it was quite straightforward, but when struggling I was often a long way down my list of possibles before getting a shift covered. Some of them must have had a !!!!!! moment on getting my call. So I can sympathise with the allocators to some extent!
