You couldn't remember the same post long enough to put it in two places.

I like the Tesco carpark as it is, no more getting wet when shopping on rainy days.

How sad, I never realised Expedia was in Accy, I've used them to arrange travel quite a lot over the last few years.
I don't understand the logic-except of course that an Indian workforce in India will cost less - whenever you get through to one of these call centers you can't understand what they're saying.

Yes, another card shop, this one specialises in Sympathy & well wishing cards,

Sorry to hear your shop is about to close.

Our sympathy on hearing about your redundancy.

Look Who's a Job seeker at 60?

(This one can obviously have the age changed to suit the unfortunate recipient).

Well done, on passing your exams, now you can start your gap life.

(This one comes with a phone number for a debt management company just above the bar code).

Congratulations On receiving your temporary loan from Wonga.

BBC News - India's call centre growth stalls

that says india's call centre business is stalling - the call centres are either coming back here or going to the phillipines .... i wonder if that is why theyve gone out there now .. to try and keep the money going they've said they'll do it cheaper ..
