    Mystery shopping?
    I have had a few meal outs recently, just takes a wee bit of time with filling out report, for me about an hour LOL, although the last one I did a lot of it on my pad while waiting for meal, finishing drinks after meal. Not suspicous as most people are on phones/pads when out and about.

    Possibly a bit too close to the days we need now but I keep wondering if I ought to try and start doing this again.

    Years ago I used to do it for one company . They only gave me 2 pubs so I used to visit them each a couple of times a year. There was a massive form to complete afterwards and then post off - much better if the form is now completed online.

    You used to have to note how long it took to clear tables, bring orders, customer checkbacks, how long to bring menu, drinks, the bill etc. It makes me difficult to take out even now as I still time how long each stage of a meal takes and I start getting tetchy if things are slow. And more than the normal letters to HQ get written as a result ...

    I sneezed for England last night after one glass:o

    I did an emergency muggle shop yesterday. The type that's unplanned and rushed. I put my 7 items on the belt and realised that it was always worth adding another item just in case they compared. And they did:T:T

    I've ordered Tassimos online but not due until tomorrow:o:)

    Well I must have started on another set of three problems - tried to use DH's kindle this morning and he has let the battery go flat AGAIN ! It's stuck n critical and won't recharge - last time it did this i had to phone kindle to get it rebooted from their end.

    Perhaps I should stay in bed with my head under the covers today !
