  1. I have some red patent shoes which have got black marks on. I have tried all kinds of substances to remove them but nothing works. I notice on a similar link that somebody suggested vaseline to put on brand new patent shoes to stop them from scratching. Does this also get marks off? A friend suggested white spirit but I'm fightened it may damage them. Thanks for any suggestions.
  2. I'm in the same situation and have been trying to get permanent work for months. Just a tip in case you didn't know; make sure if you go for a public sector interview that you know about various legislations and policies. I was caught out at a Council interview, as I was asked about Equal Opportunities and Data Protection Act and hadn't read up on them as I had never been asked about them before at any other interview. I hope this may help?
  3. I think it's something we've got to accept, that there's just less light in winter however you want to mess about with the clocks. The arguments about keeping it lighter at night to avoid so many crashes on the road seems silly to me, as the mornings would be darker and crashes would still happen.
  4. I was in a position of being promised a pay rise and was never given it. In fact, I was NEVER paid on time ever and left. Best thing considering the pay was so bad.
  5. I can never undertand why some parents allow their children to go knocking on a stranger's door, without any adult supervision. They would then be the first to complain if their children were snatched by a paedpohile. Most of this trick and treating is not harmless fun either. So many people get their houses/cars vandalised if they don't give enough money to them.
  6. Simple answer BAN firweworks and only allow them for professional displays. There is no way that these irresponsible youths mentioned in this thread should be allowed to buy them.
  7. That's awful. I know thieves can push the key out of the door and then hook it up from the floor but I never knew they could reach through the letter box and physically turn it! Thanks for the warning.
  8. Many thanks for your help. I got my current job by putting my CV on one of the sites you mentioned - but I know my employers use it a lot so I can't really put it on again. I will definitely try the others, it just seems so hard to get a job in Sheffield. The Sheffield Job site tells you how many people look at one vacancy and it's often hundreds which is a bit off putting! I'll keep on trying, thanks again.
  9. I'm sorry if I haven't moved with the times and I tried to find out on other posts but has the silver blades ice rink closed and is it just for roller skating now? I presume most people go to the new ice stadium for ice skaing? I used to ice skate at the silver blades rink back in the early 90s.
  10. I need some advice and I know there are other posts similar to this but I just wanted your thoughts on my situation. After graduating I got my dream job but the company was dead end, money was bad and I ended up being in a dead end situation. I was lucky enough to be offered a new job - miles from home for a trial period. However, I am seriously thinking of going back to temping. The travelling is getting a bit much, I wasn't told at the interview that I would have to do further travelling. I cannot afford to move closer to the job. I don't mind taking a step back in my career as long as I am on 12K+ and in an office job. Is it too much of a gamble to throw a job in? I don't want to contact an agency just yet but wanted some of your opinions.
  11. Make as change to read a funny topic!
  12. It depends what you're interested in. A simple idea is a card making competition.
  13. My hairdresser had a great idea. She reckons they should be able to use gyms and leisure facilities more. At the moment, not all children can afford to go.
  14. And my boss wonders why I hate driving! This sums it up.
  15. Yes, it's also intimidating when they hang out in gangs at night time. I know most of them are innocent but there are some that are up to no good.
