I think in today's society, there is an oppertunity to be a handy man.
I've considered for my future retiring early and being my own boss doing these sort of jobs.

You can extend to gutter cleaning, window re-painting, house painint etc etc etc.

If you do a good job, then you will find work

You are absolutely right. I am one of those people who would rather pay others to do stuff for me rather than do it myself as I'm a total lazy-!!!!. I hate gardening and anything cleaning related :mad:. In addition to my 'new' gardener I also have an Old Dear from across the road clean my house and do my ironing for me for a good price. I don't think she's bothered about the money though, she just likes coming for a natter really :rotfl: and she always brings me home baked cakes and biscuits and all sorts of stuff . I take her to the supermarket when I go though as she doesn't have any wheels, so I'm getting a good deal really .

I think I will ask my unemployed 'gardener' if he's up for some extra cash for washing and valeting my car too. I use a hand car wash in town which does a good job for a reasonable price but I think this lad is more deserving of the work right now, especially with the excellent work he's done for me already. :beer:

Your not the only one, there are loads of people willing to pay others to do a good job rather than do it themselves.

I've refurbished a couple of my own properties preferring to do the graft and take time to know its done properly.
I know others who prefer to get it done ny others in quicker time and go out to work to pay for these costs.

Neither is right or wrong, but like I said an oppertunity for someone with times on their hands

The number is 1 in 4 in London

And it's more like 40% in some boroughs.

As iv said in other posts,
People that are too ill to do any work, old people and others that can not look after themselfs i.e. peopel with donws and other metel issues.
Should be cared for by the state. And any body who is really trying to pick themselfs up and better themselfs and there familys should get all the help that thay need. I do not mind paying my tax and n.i. stamp to help any of the above.

But the lazy and the ones that just wont a free ride should be cut lose. Nobody should have to work to keep others who dont wont to work.

Im willing to give help and suport to anyone who wont to help themselfs

But not to the ones that just wont to help themselfs to a free life!

There is npo point in trying to correct my spelling mate. My brain dont work right. I can read great but when i try to write the words myself my brain can not put all the letters into the right place to for that matter think of the lettres that need to be there. And thare is nothing i can do about it:mad:

On a lighter note id just like to say that i aways enjoy reading your posts and you do hit the nail on the head a lot of the time.
Keep up the good work:T

The figures are highest in the North East, where 28 per cent of people under the age of 20 live in families with an income at least 40 per cent below the UK average of about £34,000

The same North-East where wages, housing costs and the general cost of living is also markedly below the National average?

I would have thought living on 40% below the National average in London and the SE would be a lot harder.

Another award for misrepresenting statistics goes to the journo who wrote the piece quoted.

Cheers, halight. Why can't one of the political parties run with this in their manifesto? I'd vote for it, and I suspect I'm not the only one.
