This is a topic that's been on my mind for a while now...

At the moment, I'm not actually looking to do too much differently. Bookings are coming in for 2022 with customers booking me because they...

Mornin' all (sorry, just unwinding from another arduous, cold and wet shift delivering shopping....please Lord, tell me this isn't my permanent and full time future :( )

I've come home tonight to...

Well, it arrived today :)

I can't believe how comfortable it is for starters! Not had to wear it for a shift yet (it'll get its first outing on a 9 hour shift tomorrow), but I can see just from...

I hope they're good Gavin - I've taken the plunge and ordered one.

I don't have to wear one officially being that I'm classed as an outdoor worker, but over the past couple of weeks am wearing the...

You sir, win the internet for today!

The reality of the job (and I know Neil will agree......)

* Turn up at silly 'o' clock AM (or half way through the afternoon to finish at silly 'o' clock...

DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!




Same here. With a full year of weddings in the bag (and plenty more enquiries coming in), my first FULL year of being self employed was looking to be a walk in the park....

I don't know what you could possibly mean. It's the dream job, isn't it? :whistle::whistle::whistle:

It's the same with ALL the online supermarkets (although some of our stores will allow drivers to accept gifts so long as the local management are made aware of them on return).

Are you driving...

I'm beginning to think likewise. I think it's going to be late summer before we're allowed to do anything like what we used to do, and talking to a young lady that's just booked me for her 2022...

There's no wriggle room, no excuses.

Every customer could be a "mystery shopper" being paid to report back to HQ. I'll say no more than that because this is on the public forum and walls could...

Yup

And a Merry Christmas to all from this end as well.

Fingers crossed we'll be enjoying Mariah and Shakey again this time next year :DJ:

Sadly both of the above are sackable offences :o (I kid you not)

However, for our whimsical friend oop t'North.....hmmm

Here's one for the collective brain hive

I've had several of these over the past couple of weeks, and no amount of scratching my brain cell can work out where it's supposed to lead/what it's...

I have Macs and use the recommended Keychain (blimmin' hard to replicate and even remember) passwords for each and every site I need to create an account on.
As the owner of my domains, I also...

Had that one several times.



:lol::lol::lol:

Sorry - that particular stone has been bled dry for at least the next couple of tax years after the lack of support I've had. I'm keeping the...

I think most of us on here will be qualifying for the vaccine when it comes along (myself included by then :o). Looks like plenty of milestone birthdays next year instead of weddings then :party2:
...

Maybe it's just where I live then. There's still a lot of the awkward dancing in the streets as people try to avoid each other.

In other news, one of June 21's weddings has just cancelled on me so...

With the weather getting colder and the nights getting longer, I really am holding onto that glimmer of hope. Trust me, delivering shopping from 6am or until midnight depending on what shift I'm on...

"Procrustes, variety, selectivity, and toys." - I thought that was going to be the introduction to a smutty post there :Naughty::Naughty:

I'm in the same boat as our learn'd friend oop t'North....

I hated being part time - it felt almost like being a weekend warrior in my book and I was well and truly ready for the full time fully being my own boss when the time came in April 2019.

And then...

Unlikely from this end. Having lived the dream for 11 short months and then seeing everything I'd worked for pulled out from under me with absolutely no backup from UKGOV, I'm not willing to take...

I really wish I shared your optimism gentlemen.

The vaccine(s) are good news (oh boy did I cheer when they made the announcement....even more so when I realised that by the time they get to my age...

Jumping back in time here now, but needs must.

I'm forking out around £1400 pa on storage at the moment in a container facility.
As it looks like it's going to be a long time before we're out on...

Exactly my own thought processes at the moment.

So far, only one of my 2021 weddings has rescheduled to 2022. Having said that, I'm waiting for a lot of them to do similar now that we're going...
