Started volunteering in our local tourist office, wanting to meet people of various nationalities and helping them in their own language. Sadly, no-one came in whilst I was on duty. Have since given up after 5 weeks but not because of the above. No. Gave the necessary and personal details on the admissions form. Before I had even started, nextdoor neighbour came smirking and told me she "knew all about me". Rather alarming, but soldiered on. Whilst on duty 4th time, spoke of the above and that I was not happy that all the volunteers knew my personal business by looking through the form, to which he replied "oh we all do that". A week later was asked to sign the necessary Data Protection Act! At that point I gave up.
