I think I have uploaded an attachment with the sites we can access for free. I think we can also take one guest for free as well.

How do we get it? Do we just mention we work for RM or do we have to show something like a payslip?

You have to show your work ID.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

We used ours for a visit to Osbourne House on the Isle of Wight and got in free - saving £25. Although we didn't save the money as we blew it on a cream tea in the gardens :Very Happy Just take your ID badge. If in doubt ring first as some are not free just reduced price entrance. Think its a guest and up to 4 kids

Ask the nice admin lady/bloke in your office, or failing that, ask your lino..if it's anything like our office, he should be badgering you to display id visible about your person anyway.

Same here, no ID after 10 months so far. The only reason I know I exist on RM's books is that I get a pay slip each week :crazy:
