Dotish…..is the word that comes to mind!.
Stupidness. I don’t see anywhere mentioned the removal of the salt. Also why is this published same day as you have to apply why not a week or more notice???
Form is read-only. Unable to complete and submit.
How can I complete the application form as it’s in ready only format.
I would like to do this online course
Ms Jones told me that we should go ahead and register although the deadline has passed & she will do what she can to assist. The organizers were late in sending them the information.
The form is not user-friendly. If you can ‘save a copy’ you should be able to write on it. The Submit button did not work for me but you can send it by email. Hope this helps,
