Daughters wanting to Earn a few quid....
« on: 06 April 2009, 20:36:19 »
Asking me if I mind them both going for a paper round that earns £10 a week with a £2 bonus if all the papers are delivered....
So I said, "That is great of you girls wanting to earn your own money but I really don't want you to be doing that as I would be worrying if your safe, but, if you wash both are cars, then give them a brush out inside so they look tidy I will give you £10".
I then asked a couple of neighbours and they want their cars washing too, so they will have about 5 cars to wash at £4 each then our two cars for £10.
So smiles all around at the minute :y
The only thing is I have got to buy their gear, buckets, sponges, car wash 'n' wax, wash leather etc........ Oh and wash each car roof  ;D ;D

I did think of the step ladder but thought it may cost me a few quid in resprays  ;D

I think its a great idea, two girls 13 & 10 wanting to earn a few quid of their own, will teach them that money does grow on trees too...

Sadly Loo Knee I would love to oblige with helping , as they could do mine for me , but I am thinking it probably isn't that cheap after I have taken out the fuel  ;D

Good luck to them mate
