Interesting job - part time and reasonable pay, work from home, even better. Oh and be ready to commute to Bisley at least 2 or 3 times a week, hardly home based.

How did you think you would get the renewal paperwork and VFP forms????

How about the post?

[HeatherW762]

It's hard enough to get post to us without getting lost let alone sending it on again. Then there's the trips to Mount Browne in Guildford when there's a panic job on........
