Morning all
4 months ago I had an offer of work, which has been pending various things all this time. They have been messing around good and proper so yesterday I bit the bullet and registered with an agency. I say
because my opinion of them isn't very good.
I have already been put forward for two rather well paid permanent jobs and a temp job looks like it might be starting next week :eek: So without a lottery win, my days being mine are numbered :eek:I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Health & Beauty, Greenfingered Moneysaving and How Much Have You Saved boards.

Early worm:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I've been up for four hours.
Things still a bitHope all is good for you.
Have you got the old apg still and if so could you check mine for me? Got some roasting bags yesterday and see that they are now marked unavailable on ms.
Missed all the changeover so don't know the difference between old and new. I think that I must have new on Chrome as it shows a barcode on the first page.
Smile and save. You'll be 10% better off at Asda.
If we're not 10% cheaper than Tesco, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, or Waitrose on your comparable grocery shop we'll give you the difference. Guaranteed! It's as simple as that!*
Enter a store receipt
Please ensure that you've waited at least 3 hours after you shop to compare your receipt.
Enter your barcode number (TC#):
What's this?
I want to know about great offers, ideas and new services from ASDA

Good morning all, nice sunny day here (so far)!
All that talk about dresses last night has got me thinking. We have a party to go to next Saturday, being held by a Knight of the Realm (oooh, get me!). I was going to wear my purple silk LK Bennett, or my M&S maxi, or the silk one I had made in Thailand. Problem is, it is not formal or anything, but I might be better off wearing blue for various reasons. I don't do dresses, but all that talk of dresses has got me thinking I might have to go find another one ..............
QoC, it takes a while to get any new business off the ground, can you just take the temporary job and in the meantime canvass for new customers?What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0 -

Go woth what you are most comfortable in, I'm sure you'll look fab in any of them
It is an option.ingly, I haven't done much about the business side of it because I had all the ideas but didn't know where to start and even ballsed up my website efforts
But, this new work is moving into legal and there'll be tons more opportunity in that field :cool:

Good morning all! Sorry to have been AWL for so long, RL quite busy.
I decided when DH started his new job after Christmas and was travelling away a lot more again that I'd have to get myself busier during the week, so I applied to a neighbouring authority and now I work for two of them as and when. It keeps me out of mischief, but sadly cuts down a bit on time for other things (though does mean I pass a wider range of supermarkets)
It's now starting to get busy and will be full on soon until September, but I've just been away and am going away in autumn, so should cope with the madness!
Love to all

Thank you :A
Maybe you need time to think about where to go with the business then. If you have the ideas you simply need a plan of action, once you build up a client base things sort of flow from there. Problem is, these days you seem to need to start with a decent website.
Interestingly our website is extremely basic, most of our customers come through word of mouth or the Business club my OH belongs to (BNI).What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0 -

That's kind of what I'm thinking ... I've got med-legal experience but not legal on its own so if I can get some of that under my belt, it will be a big helpI’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Health & Beauty, Greenfingered Moneysaving and How Much Have You Saved boards.

Spot on MKS - I perform civil ceremonies - marriages, civil partnerships, baby namings etc.Usually it's a lovely job but it's not well paid and it goes very quiet in the winter.
Must dash off to work, have a good day all.Hope is not a strategy.0
