Do many shops offer free accomodation in Co Clare? I might fancy a scenic couple of weeks next year..... :-)

Never required it, but the more rural you go, the more likely you are to get accommodation thrown in. Alternatively, Mrs Fleeg does a full Irish breakfast to die for, and we have 3 spare bedrooms...Alert Ruinair!!

Here is the opposite.

I locumed for Rolands last Friday, I faxed off my claim mid afternoon - The cheque arrived the next Thursday - Thats only four working days!

Well done Rolands.

I wonder if it was because I told their non-pharmacist area manager that they were losing £6,200 a year on a single script as it was not being endorsed correctly - All the other locums didn't care so the staff told me.
