Re: How to download films & UK TV

I download straight from torrentz.eu using bittorrent. Only thing i have ever used so i don't know if its crap or not.

I'm guessing there are no issues with downloading stuff across there? I was chatting to a mate of mine and he said they are clamping down on it in the UK?

Re: Sin tax increase

What do you currently pay for a pack of marlboro and a 6 pack of beer?

Are the prices excessively high, or pretty reasonable?

Re: Protected Employement Fields

I'll use employment agencies to try work my way through initailly. I currently work for the biggest hotel group in Africa, so that has some backing, and they are currently branching into the UK, so hopefully that will help even more. As for the salary part, i'm not overly stressed, looking for a cha...

Re: Employment Websites

Thanks for the Info.

I have had a look at the protected Employee fields and didnt come across hospitality. But that answers it all. I am unfortunately none of the above, although working my way up, so i will have to see what comes my way once there.

Employment Websites

Hey guys,

I am looking for a few employment websites that are HH specific. I am currently using JobsDB which is great, but you can't set specific areas to search in.

If there are any hospitality industry sites that would be awesome as well.

Thanks in advance.
