I've used the FPS service and it really does work.  Now I get just 1 or 2 faxes occasionally.  Also, if you get loads of junk mail at home, register for the Mailing preference service www.mpsonline.org.uk.  It virtually cuts out all junk mail delivered to your home.

Does anyone know of any good 3* and 4* in Noisel (which I am informed is about 1 hour away from Paris)?

Any suggestions would be very welcome.

Thanks.

Hi,

I am trying to sort out some flights from Heathrow to Las Palmas, Canary Islands for next week.

I am looking for cheap flights in business class or charter airlines - can anyone recommend any good websites to start searching for these? Our local travel agent's quote is too expensive, so trying to track down some cheaper prices.

Any suggestions/advice would be very welcome.

Thanks.

Thanks for everyone's suggestions - I was helping out a colleague who was busy and she got recommended a hotel by someone else in the end (sorry I can't remember the name of it).

Thanks again though!

Thanks Bridget - trying to figure out where the Warwick is?

I would estimate that Madison Square is about half way between these 2 points - what do people think?

The other option is to get a location near to Bowery STreet, so if anyone knows any good hotels at about US$160, please can they let me know.

Thanks.

Hi, I am after a hotel in NY ideally half-way between the 2 locations below:

Zanzibar 645 9th Avenue (corner 45th), New York   and
Sala 344 Bowery, New York

Budget is around £100 GBP per night. I am having big trouble understanding how the streets work in New York.

Can anyone help me?

Many Thanks

This is a difficult one - I'm a long-term temp and I've been in the same situation in the past where I've been asking for work, and there is only so many times you can keep asking.  

Depending on the size of the company and how their email system works, you could suggest to the Manager that you send round an email to other departments (especially other PA's/secretaries in those departments) to see if they need any help.

Or offer to help them out with jobs like filing/photocopying if you spot anything in the office that looks like it needs doing.  You could also mention to the receptionnists who might know what little jobs need doing elsewhere.  Just a thought...

I think it is Dev but not 100% sure.

Thanks - I'll look into that possibility.

I just have to say I think Deskdemon is great - really useful.

Hi

Does anyone know of a good website that lists DJ's/bands in a local area that are available for company events?  I'm trying to find DJ's in the greater london area for an event next week.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Hi all

I'm hoping someone might be able to help me....

I am trying to find out how far Copenhagen airport is from the city centre by cab/public transport -i.e. the distance and how long it would take to get there by either cab/train/bus?

Also, does anyone know of any good websites for printing out maps of Copenhagen?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Susan

That was quick - many thanks for your assistance. I will have a look at mapquest too!

Thanks again for all your help.

Hi all

Wonder if you New Yorkers out there can help me (I'm based in the UK)?  I need to find out how close two hotels in NY are.

One is the Premier Hotel at 133 West 44th Stret,New York,NY, 10036 and the other is the Paramount, 235 West 46th Street, New York, NY 10036.  I am having trouble getting my head around the streets in NY. Are they walking distance from each other?
or how long would it take in a taxi from one to another?

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Thanks.
