Hi,

It depends on the council. I work for about an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon and get paid £89.00 a week for three weeks and for the fourth week I get paid £137.00 as the council pays travel expenses, every fourth week.

So the total for the year is £5252, but the council takes off a small retainer each month so that I get paid equally throughout the school year and holidays, so it works out at £4,800.00. It's a final salary pension scheme too.

Because I have enhanced disclosure I do some work for the school too, like supervising kids on trips, but in reality I don't have to do that and I don't ask to be paid for it.

Your local council will be able to give you details, if you ask for the School Crossing Patrol Manager.

I work at my son's school and it's a really nice wee job.

check the gambling loophole part of the fourum it explains it in there


but basically you place a bet ie chelsea vs west ham

you put 10 pounds on chelsea to win then got to an exchange site like betfair a lay it off meaning you put 1o pounds on that chelsea wont win but could lose or draw

moneymakestheworldgoround - i like the idea of the bingo board, a sort of fun way to keep a tally.

Thinking about reading up on matched betting (if I don't understand it then I'm sure the OH will), may play some bingo, just can't get the motivation to list my stuff on eBay yet.

I'm completely the same on both points haha!


Trying to find car boots near me seems to be impossible
but don't really have time to organise one myself! Just have to keep looking!

Car boots - some are well worth travelling to. I used to do one an hour away and would never take less than £140 quid a time. Better than going locally and making £20 ! ( depending on your fuel consumption of course!)

Matched betting - in my head the theory is simple. You cant lose. Scenario - you sit at a table in a cafe with 2 friends, and you bet one friend the next person to walk through the door is female. You then bet the other friend that the next person to walk through the door is male. In theory one bet will win and one will lose. The trick seems to be making use of the free bets the bookies give you, so one bet is using your own money, and one bet is using 'free'money. Also making sure the odds of both bets are similar. This is where it starts to fall apart for me !

I posted a thread asking for 'buddies' for matched betting so we could email and PM for moral support and work through the basics together, but it got removed ! Apparently this isn't allowed :mad:

The bingo board works for me - when I had bills to pay, I would mark it up into a board. So if the gas was £75, I would do £5 squares. It would help me in supermarkets or out shopping - if I was going to pick up a bottle of wine for £5, I would be thinking thats a square I could colour in ! Or a Costa Coffee, or a pair of shoes ......

this might help some people with ebay and p+p charges - I've got a spreadsheet set up for p+p prices starting from 0g going to 1kg (i think) and it has which countries are EU for europe postage and the price for worldwide postage as well. I add 75p on for packing (some might say too high but not had complaints as yet) and some of the prices have this added on.

I'm willing to send it to people if they want it, it opens up in excel 2007 and excel 2000 (i think)

i'm not joining this oo-ja-what-dya-call-it .. task, no, event, no, challenge thats the word, lol, as i'm doing my own mini thing

Yeah I think I'll look for more car boots in the new year..
Don't really like travelling alone & myself & OH seem to be on different shifts all the time..

Yeah I think I understand that just about! Do you use different companies for each bet? Sorry for all the dumb questions!
