If you supply DJs and P.A. systems for schools, make sure you get your invoice in before the end of term, otherwise you won't be paid for over 6 weeks. :o

I'm just sitting here, about to do the invoices and wondering who is going to be there to pay them. I was even offered a cheque yesterday from one of them and I refused, telling them I didn't have the invoice with me, but would sort it out tomorrow!

Bursar?! :eek:
:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: What's wrong with a Secretary/ Accountant/Person with chequebook? :confused:
Strewth Darren, you're even more upmarket than I thought. ;)
( And again for those of you who missed the sarcasm, the school I went to had a Bursar. ;) Did I ever mention I had a Classical Education? :confused: :D :D :D :D :D :D :D )

As I understand it, the position of bursar is one you have to attain via exams etc, otherwise you are just the secretary or finance officer etc. ;)

Well I don't know what the standard procedure is in such hallowed places as Darren and the rest of you seem to work in, but at the end of the functgion I give a nice Lady or Gentleman a begging letter, and they almost always take pity on me, and exchange it for coin of the realm. :confused: :confused:

Perhaps you'd care to borrow number 13 from my T&C's?
13: Please do not ask for credit, as a smack in the gob often offends.
