    Without you accusing me of being homophobic again is this post for real?

    You want someone on here to find a site where they can give you a list of companies?

    Why not think for yourself?

    How do you think I get a list of companies?

    I was only asking a simple question and no need to rude :(

    Don't you send spec letters/emails already?

    I an guessing since you have left the WP you have been out of work 3 years so to say you have never sent a spec CV/letter in all that time I am amazed.

    Not just at you at ANYONE who hasn't!

    If you can see this link https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=burnley&ie=UTF-8&ei=pSieUrScHuW70wWDzoGQBQ&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAg then you can send spec letters/emails to lots of people!

    Yes I have done in the past while I was on the work programme but now that I had my new agreement with Jobcentre today I got told that I need to send some spec letters to employers.

    What site? A site where you can find a list of company names in your area?
