    Does anyone know of anywher or anyone that does this?

    Thanks


  2. Does anyone know of a Wheelie Bin cleaning service in S35 (Wharncliffe)

    I heard rumours that there was an existing service, I've been told people have seen a blue van that does it - but no one seems to know the name of the company or anyone that has the service? Strange eh!

    Anyway Does anyone know of a service like this is this area

     

    Thanks


  3. We are am dismantling an old greenhouse next weekend, the wood is all rotton, but the glass panels are all fine.

    Anyone is welcome to come and remove as much glass as they would like free of charge, most of it is held in with nails or old putty so shuoldn't take much to gently remove them.

    If your interested then mail me back, I am in S35

    Thanks

  4. I am looking for a Restaurant that is a little bit different to take some family to at the end of the month.

    I was hoping to go to Wasabisabi, for the teppanyaki - sadly they are full up on the night in question

    So we are looking for somewhere else that is a little different, a little special.

    Has anyone got any suggestions - it doesn't have to be Japanesse food, we like almost everything and are open to all sorts of new places.

    So any suggestions would be welcome

    Thanks

  5. Hello

    I am after a little advice here.

    I have a very large Weeping Willow and a Magnolia tree in my garden.

     

    The Willow is getting very thick and dense and needs thinning out (I think this is the right term)

    The Magnolia tree is jsut getting juge and taking over the bottom of the garden (it is pink flowers and looks lovely thought) This also needs cutting back or thinning out somehow.

    ANy advice or recomendations of someone that could help, or is it pretty simple to do yourself

    Thanks

  6. I got caught speeding the other week at the Outibridge end of Langett Road.

    I admitted it to the Police and they have given me an option of either £60 and three points or taking a speed awareness course (costing £70) and if I pass there will be no points.

    They state it is a four hour course - has anyone else done this course before? What does it consist of? Also it doesn't state what happens if you fail!

    Can anyone shed any light on this for me

    Cheers


  7. We are having a 100th Birthday party in May for one of the clients in our Care Home and are looking for a band or singer to perform.

    A lookalike tribute would be superb, someone in the vein of maybe Buddy Holly or early beatles.

    Any suggestions or recomendations are welcome to help make this party one to remember.

    It would be an afternoon party so the act would play at around 2pm ish but can be flexiable with time. Majority of people watching would in between 75 and 95, so suitable recomendations for that age group would be superb.

    Many thanks

  8. I run a small care establishment over in Broomhall S10

    I currently use Quickbooks for all invoicing/billing accounts etc

    I( am looking for some one that can help me run my payroll completly through Quickbooks.

    We would pay for someone to come help set it up and train us in it - and possiably a little ongoing support if needed.

    Is there anyone that currently uses this system?

    Thanks

  9. I am having to leave my lovely cat for a few days in Feb - I have prevously used a Cat Hotel but I don't think that she (my cat) was overly impressed and as this is only for a few days I am considering a pet sitting service.

    Someone to pop over twice a day and feed her, play with her a little and maybe change litter etc if it is needed.

    However the thought of this is also quite scary!

    Can anyone recomend a good service?

    What kind of things should I be looking for in a company?

    I would like to actually meet the person and not have the job passed between several staff (I don't know if this is how these things work or if people that do this generally work alone).

    It is a great deal of trust involved (in a potenail stranger) and I guess that is what puts me off a little.

    I am in S35 - any advice or suggestions would be welcome

  10. I did something similar to this many years ago

    I went off to a home in India that catered purely for children with Polio

    People said similar things to me - "why should we pay for your holiday" etc

    I can assure everyone - it was nothing like a holiday.

    I spent six months living like a local, washing in a bucket, sleeping on the floor and making the most of every little thing that came our way.

    The experiace changed me life completely - I came back and had such a different view of the world that everything (even my job and career changed).

    So to all you skeptics out there - dig deep and help out a good cause.

    I worked liked crazy to rasie fund for my trip all those years agoandd anything i could do to help then please let me know

  11. Brilliant?!

     

    There are loads of jobs out there. Even if you don't have any qualifications there are jobs where all you need is enthusiasm and a positive outlook. You need to be keen to learn. Some jobs might even let you return to college to do adult education classes.

     

    Failing that buy a power washer and offer to clean people's cars. Buy a lawnmower and offer to cut people's grass. Find work either employed or self employed. Ignore the credit crunch, the world hasn't ground to a halt.

     

    Well said sir!

    A man after my own heart - I couldn't have phrased that better myself.

    People jsut need to stop moaning, turn off daytime tv, get off their backsides and find something constructive to do with their day

  12. I somewhat agree with this post, althought I was unemployed for a very long time... "Only 20" but still, I've been to alota interviews but with no outcome.

    But I kepted trying and now I'm working in a position I've never done before, getting training and starting out at £7.34

     

    < I'm a happy fella >

     

     

    Hey, well done - if only more people were like you Kokombi, you were prepared to work and kept trying and found a place that you enjoy and that has a future. See, it is out there people, you jsut got to get up and go find it.

    To MrsMcbeth - I can believe that no one commented on the jobs that you linked to, becasue quite often even if its handed to them on a plate, people don't want it.

    That has been my point all along.

    I can jsut hear the excuses now "I don't want to work with animals", "why should I help others, no ones helped me". Its sad but the excuses are the same over and over again - people need to change their view points and be more like the previous poster.

    I'm not unemployed but defending those who genuinely are seeking work and have to encounter those with such biased opinions as yourself!

     

    You need to look beneath the surface and re-check your figures mate!

     

    Sorry, I am not sure I understand you post!

    How can I be biased when I arrange all those interviews and only one person turned up?? I myself have used the site I mentioned to advertise and it is NOT cheap to do so. Any company with sense wouldn't pay the amount they ask for if the job didn't exist!! Again after a month on that site - I had very few replies, I think rather then me checking my figures I think that people should try a new mind set - when people are stuck in negative frame of mind - very little happens for them and that seems to be the problem at the moment.
