    Veg & More - Progress report for anyone who's interested...

    Love the name, love the logo. Best of luck. Take down those bleeping cheating supermarkets

    Like the old forum, but worse

    I think there's a problem with the data for number of "thanks" that have been transferred across from the old site. For me, I know for sure that about 190 individual posts had been thanked (with maybe 350 total thanks)... but on the new site, the number of "Post Ratings" is showing at 122...

    Like the old forum, but worse

    Two other bits of feedback. 1/ Trophy points... (lets see if the name grows on me!)... there is talk of points for "useful posts" and "number of thanks" and I've seen reference to "Likes". Are these three different concepts... if so, is it clear what they are? If not, then when you...

    Like the old forum, but worse

    As your post developed... I so expected the last bit to read "in order to generate new members, and ultimately to get rid of the old ones" :) Things I like draft saving I never used to track favourite threads in the past... I don't know if you could in the old forum. That's a good feature...

    The fitness industry

    For marathon and Ironman events, I'm a regular member of the Runner's World Forum. It might well be the biggest forum for marathon/triathlon/ironman in the UK... and you'll generally get sensible opinions if you ask this (and other) questions on there. I think I like your idea, if put in a...

    BurtonJ? .... Hello-ooooh.

    Operating as both a Wholesaler and a Retailer

    And do you think such a contract would actually be legal?

    Can anyone advise whether I have a legal 'leg to stand on'?

    So... you're a courier. Let's imagine you do some work for a company and are just about to invoice them. How would you feel if you received a letter from them saying: "Dear Mr. Lee, If you wish to contact us about payment for work done for us, we will charge you a 50 pound administration...

    Gross Misconduct after a resignation

    Surely you're wasting far too much mental energy on this. Both to save you one day's pay, and to try to shop her to her mortgage company - when it seems that the only 'proof' you have is in a few text messages - that are very unlikely to be considered admissible evidence anyway. Crack open a...

    Establishing my business

    Fair enough. I apologise for having doubted you! It must have been absolute nightmare.

    Establishing my business

    . This is some sort of joke, right. It's confusing, cause I don't think you're usually on the wind up. In a nutshell, your story is... You say that you had a shop with five windows, overlooking a busy market square. You didn't sell a thing for three whole months, not even a plectrum...

    List of costs for running a retail store

    Some possibles: 75K wage bill seems low for 5 FT + 2 PT staff. Must be absolute bare min pay... and you must be expecting them to cover each others sickness and holidays at no extra cost. Stock wastage costs - to cover shoplifting and damage. Does any special shop equipment need servicing...

    Trademark issue with Toys R Us.

    The term "US" is short for "useless" in my language. So Windows are US, or Glowsticks are US don't give me a great feeling for the quality!

    The 'Something For Nothing' Brigade...

    Well that thread took some reading. Started off quite entertaining , but got bogged down in something akin to trench warfare in the latter stages!
