Possibly a stupid question but would you make more money if they booked with you directly? The agents must be taking a cut of the fee after all. rubschin:

Load bay liner
Mitsubishi 'roll-over' bar

The vehicle has recently been fitted with new tyres and a new battery.
The bodywork is in excellent condition and has been re-sprayed. There is a small scratch on the tailgate (shown in pictures).

Got a wedding tomorrow, spoke to the rep on Friday (before the weekend) I need details for a particular wedding on monday.....
yesterday she answered the phone with the words....."i forgot Misty"..
The dj I have for this booking is waiting for his information, including what bloody time he starts...I text the rep and she is not happy...
"its Sunday!!! I am with my family, I work 12 hour days and want at least one day off!!!"
Fuck that, if she had not forgotten, I wouldn't have to bother her on a Sunday! Also, bollx Sunday, APey is at a wedding now and I am up to my ears in paperwork trying to organise the week ahead, and the greek dancers whom I've confirmed wont answer the phone. angry041:
This is someones wedding day for gods sake, we don't take a break, its too important. The rep said she will give me the information at 7am tomorrow, which means she bloody well has it!

She is supposed to be in a meeting with a very important groom for tomrrow in 15 minutes. The meeting was brought forward but I haven't got hold of her all day as her phone is off, no email reply or FB. Also her gig tonight is cancelled and at the moment she doesnt know cos I still cant get in touch with her.
The wedding tomorrow is Lebanese and they are quiet specific about traditions etc, so the groom wanted to meet her today to go over all his requirements and give her the lebanese music. If she doesn't show, the company are going to have poor Apey's head on a stick.
I feel sick. This is someones wedding day about to be ruined. angry041:
I have even put out a post on FB to see if anyone has seen her. I don't know what else to do.

Do the job yourself and sack her
I think we will need to bury her. Apey is gonna kill her.
She just came on FB 5:02pm (the meeting was originally for 5) "lost my phone, just thought to check here, what time is that meeting today"
my reply "NOW!!!!!!"
"ah, ok, can you phone the taxi firm to see if they found my phone?"
I was on the phone to Apey during this and he said to me...
"don't you fucking DARE do her any favours!"
scared:
hes trying to keep the bride and groom happy at the same time. He also has his own wedding now which he wont be ready for. My baby is not a happy bunny. noooo:

Sack herso true you had to say it twice
If Misty doesn't sack her then other DJs will think it's OK to make Misty run around for them, Ms Convertible will just get worse and eventually someone really will kill her
Get rid

It's a huge saga but DJ Dogbreath committed so many offences during a big budget, full production wedding at a stately pile that he ended up being arrested and spent the night in the cells. He was the only element of the production we didn't organise. He came with the caterers.
Sometime I will tell the whole story, but trying to cop off with the brides' younger sister and pinching drinks were just the beginning. Trying to wake up the owner of the house and father of the bride at 3am because he couldn't get his car and van out of the carpark was the end of it.

Northern monkey stag party recce starts tomorrow. A local wag has suggested dropping them off on the side of the road outside town. Most evenings a few of the local hookers are there, doing business with Rumanian truck drivers.

Sorted that and told them I would be out of reach for a day or two. When I got back Sunday Evening and stopped at Bar Tinca for an aperitivo I found out they had been banged up for various offenses. On Friday they got thrown out of the only dodgy club for miles, tried to start a fight outside, couldn't get a taxi to bring them back to the village and finally got the 7.00 am bus back. They were rude to the driver (still drunk)), so he called the local police who got them off the bus and made them walk the last 3 miles- it's very uphill.
Being northern monkeys they didn't take the hint and started drinking again after a short break for clean underwear. Insulting the Catholic Church during Easter weekend didn't go down well and trying to buy the favours of some of the local women was probably the last straw. This time the Carab's had had enough and went in heavy. The five of them were thrown in the cell "for their own safety", Passports confiscated, bruises collected. I had to act as interpreter and they started to have a go at me. I walked away and left them to stew. We got them on the plane this morning, complete with official escort.
I'm off to an interesting meeting now. The Hotel they had booked doesn't want them, the local priest won't marry them and the wedding caterer's have pretty much doubled their quote. And Mirko the mayor will be telling them officially they aren't welcome back, but we will be keeping their deposit to cover fines and costs.
And Mirko also asked me to mark their home town on a map of the UK. I'm going to draw the usual line from the severn estuary to the wash to mark where civilisation ends.

Where do I start ? I didn't want to get involved so I gave them a list of places to visit (all a sensible distance away) and sent them off. Within hours they were calling to say that no-one understood what they were saying, they couldn't find the only Macdonalds within 50 miles, and they couldn't get a cheap pint of lager. Apparently it costs half as much in their local Wetherspoons, and being real men they don't drink wine

Pafos post office is normally super fast quick as they have a single queue system whereas Limassol has multiple queues and: -
a) I always choose the wrong (slowest) queue.
b) Slipriots always push in at the front as the person serving is inevitably related to them.
Anyhoo...
There were only two desks open for 'postal services'... lots of other staff milling around but they are obviously not qualified weigh a parcel and stick a label on it...
One desk is blocked by a Cypriot woman sending three parcels by Datapost. It should be simple but she hasn't packed the parcels very well. Two of them look like bicycle saddles with a bit of bubble wrap around them and the third is a huge, heavy creaking cardboard box which is unlikely to survive the journey from desk to scales - never mind actually going through the postal system. The woman makes clear that the top of the box is very close to the contents and any pressure on the top of the box will break the contents - a 'Fragile' sticker is placed on the top of the box.
This is all discussed in great detail and involves the woman going outside to her car (gets purse, etc.)...
Meanwhile on the (very attractive eyes:) assistant is serving an English woman that wants to send a parcel by Datapost - she hasn't filled in the Datapost form so the (very attractive eyes:) assistant is doing it for her...
VAA: What is in the box?
EW: An IPTV box
VAA: ??? I. P. T. V. Box...
VAA: Does it have any batteries in it?
EW: I don't know, it is an IPTV Box
VAA: I have no idea what an IPTV is but I need to know if it has batteries...?
EW: Well, yes, I suppose so - it is an IPTV Box!
VAA: Well then it can't be sent - we can't send it if it has batteries!
EW: It is an IPTV Box!
etc. ::)
Eventually, VAA agreed to send it and took the money - well, she took the money and prolly chucked the box in the bin or marked it 'don't send, contains batteries' or boot stomping practice - Gatwick' or some such...
Meanwhile Cypriot woman is still discussing her parcels and the danger of damage to the top of the box and the queue stretches out towards the door - I am next but one.
Next is an English couple... facepalm:
He wants to send/do/receive something that requires ID. He pulls out a battered passport which he probably took over the top with him at Mons...
VAA: Sorry, this passport has expired - I cannot accept it as ID.
EC: Produce another passport
VAA: Sorry, this has expired too.
EC: Produce some other form of ID...
VAA: Sorry, this doesn't have an expiry date on it. Valid ID must have an issued from and a valid to date.
EC: Producing some more tattered paperwork, "This is not good enough!" eeek:
VAA: Sorry, but I don't make the rules - If you would like to speak to my manager I will get him but ID has to have the two dates...
So the manager arrived and they started shouting at him, "I'm going to get very angry in a minute," etc.
They were still at it when Parcel lady finished, I send my package registered and left... They could still be at it now... noooo:

A week later it is closed again 'because all the fryers packed up'... ::)
Then it re-opened after a week of 'repairs' but on a couple of odd days, it has been closed in the evening for no apparent reason...
Last week, my mate Brian decides to give it a try... he runs a successful Vietnamese catering business so knows a bit about food and stuff...
Quote from: Brian Waters
Booked The Plaice last night for 8 pm to be told when we sat down ,no chips left only frozen! Anyone can make a mistake we thought ,so phoned early today and booked again ,asking staff this time will there be real chips with our real fish ? and was reassured there would be as they were same embarassed staff as last night .
Sat down at the appointed booking time tonight 8 pm to be told no chips left only frozen!
I am a local resident, what do the tourists think? Good bye Mr Plaice not good enough!

Me: "Those bedside cabinets, why don't they move?"
Him: "They're fixed to the wall and the new unit next to it"
Me: "but then we can't get to the all new plug sockets we had put in or use the custom designed recess in the back of the units"
Him" I did ask but Wayne (his boss) said to do it that way."
Banghead
(This is the same Wayne that asked me idiot obvious questions about coving and skirting boards but couldn't be arsed on this)
Me: "can we get them made movable?"
Him "yes but it'll leave holes where I screwed them to your new wardrobes"
cussing: cussing: cussing:
Phone calls to the real boss ensue. This is going to be fun but sadly we don't get to watch when real boss next sees Wayne as it could get expensive - for them.

Dear Friend,
This mail may be a surprise to you because you did not give me the
permission to do so and neither do you know me but before I tell you
about myself I want you to please forgive me for sending this mail
without your permission. I am writing this letter in confidence
believing that if it is the will of God for you to help me and my
family, God almighty will bless and reward you abundantly. I need an
honest and trust worthy person like you to entrust this huge transfer
project unto.
My name is Mr.john Christopher, The Branch Manager of a Financial
Institution. I got your contact through a reliable source called
database through Ghana chambers of commerce. I am a Ghanaian married
with 3 kids. I am writing to solicit your assistance in the transfer
of US$7,500,000.00 Dollars. This fund is the excess of what my branch
in which I am the manager made as profit last year (i.e. 2014
financial year). I have already submitted an annual report for that
year to my head office in Accra-Ghana as I have watched with keen
interest as they will never know of this excess. I have since, placed
this amount of US$7,500,000.00 Dollars on an Escrow Coded account
without a beneficiary (Anonymous) to avoid trace.
As an officer of the bank, I cannot be directly connected to this
money thus I am impelled to request for your assistance to receive
this money into your bank account on my behalf. I agree that 45% of
this money will be for you as a foreign partner, in respect to the
provision of a foreign account, and 55% would be for me. I do need to
stress that there are practically no risk involved in this. It's going
to be a bank-to-bank transfer. All I need from you is to stand as the
original depositor of this fund so that the fund can be transferred to
your account.
If you accept this offer, I will appreciate your timely response to
me. This is why and only reason why I contacted you, I am willing to
go into partnership investment with you owing to your wealth of
experience, So please if you are interested to assist on this venture
kindly contact me back for a brief discussion on how to proceed.

And what Nick said
The problem is it is alot of work although badly paid ..so competitors would jump at chance (till they realise not all easy and fun ..terms payment etc)....
and in theory we could live off just their work ..(never would ..eggs/basket ..think thomas cook )....
But the main reason I keep the contract is for other work/private .....as soon as I say .."we have worked for TUI/thompson/etc for 12 years ".......it legitimises us in eyes of client .... Thumbs: sad but true ...

So phone head TUI rep ..she says ignore that complaint ... Thumbs: the rep who sent it is talking crap ....I also point out the Dj concerned posted on social media all guests dancing etc..
Turns out the "complaint" was the Dj telling the rep ..he doesnt normally do all-inc venues due to type of guests "..a private conversation to explain to her why she hadnt met him before .... Banghead...

All the Djs I know have msg me saying they will now not work with them ... ;D
Why they did not say "as well as a Dj" is beyond me ... noooo:
The bloke in the advert says "Djs just press buttons" ..!!!.....
Also "artists" and Djs often share same space /electrics etc ...well that aint happening bow..lol....
So to summarise ...they have reduced their bookings (no Dj will recommend, over half their work is from Djs )
Good luck when asking to use electric ..the Dj is generally there first .. ;D
