    My faith in MSing has been restored. Going to be paid by GFK tomorrow - WHOPEE!!! My first pay day. I'm easily pleased!!!!

    Well reminded! Just checked my first pay from them and £45 due to hit my MS and Quidco bank account tomorrow. That'll help pay for my weekend beer!

    Yes I did thanks.

    Another great call where the automated booking system didn't understand me and then I got through to real person with a foreign accent who didn't understand me either :rolleyes: :D

    How long have you go to go until baby arrives?

    Got another 8 weeks to go yet. Not sure what to do about assignments now as a lot of them are for the end of August. Don't want to accept a load with only 4 weeks to go. I'm going to try and see if I can get any last minute rather than booking too far ahead. I can see me re-scheduling assignments whilst in labour!!

    Seeing as I can't drink (humph) I'm saving mine up for Christmas. Got paid by GR on Tuesday and by the time I'd bought a mag for me, paid my Mum the £10 I owed her, gave her some money for savings and bought my daughter a new pair of slippers it had all disappeared. How to get rid of money in one foul swoop!!!

    guys need some help re: TNS test questionnaire for registeration-
    I am stuck at these questions now these are obvious questions but I cant find specific info in the TNS handbook -

    1)When is the exception to the rule, when a questionnaire should be completed on the site of an assignment?
    2)What part of the questionnaire is subjective?
    3)Is it important to attempt everything requested on an assignment. Why?

    I cant find answer to these in TNS mystery shopping handbook does any one remember answer to these or have their application saved. Thnx

    2) Page 15, last paragraph.
    3) Bottom of pages 6 and 22.

    Me too -they still haven't noticed the substantial overpayment I'm holding on to for them!

    I also got paid by GAP and React Surveys.

    I planned on working till 36 weeks, but I had complications so I had to stop work around 33 weeks. As it happens, she arrived at 36 weeks! I would rest up and take it easy for the last few weeks, rather than rushing around working. I was forced to put my feet up for health reasons, but I did enjoy the rest! Hope all goes well, and have a look at the MSE parent club thread on the marriages and families board. It's a lovely thread.

    Finally got the rest of my GFK train ticket money today, so I'm happy :D
    Here I go again on my own....
