Righto! Off to watch a bit of Eastenders and reinforce the idea of my not having a baby in case someone swaps it etc. God this storyline is heartbreaking.

I went to see Russell Howard doing a work in progress yesterday, I had 2 pints of lager, I can't remember the last time I had a drink apart from a glass of Christmas champagne (yuk) Anway the little gig was brilliant 150 people and was £10 well. The downside apart from the lager *checks to see if MrG is around* I went home and had egg on toast, then one of those tiny little pizza's then a whole heap of Ferrer Rocher............Had a good nights sleep though :oops: :cool: o/
preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks

I have been asked to test a product for a marketing campaign, but have to fork out £48 for the privilege, recommended retail price is £250, but the product can be b*ght online for £60. I wonder how many people will take up the test? I once had to test a scanner and at the end of the test, I kept it for free (the scanner costs about £300) - that is more my kind of testing!

Why do you have to p*y for it? If they want you to test it for them for free, they should provide it for free! I wouldn't do it.

Is that the philllips blu light thingy? If so, I got that too. I got all excited until I saw there is a payment! Funnily, enough I'm always invited to all the ones that require payments...very rarely to the ones that don't! :roll:

If it's going for £60 online, probably wont do it. Then it's really not worth it.
