    By this time in March I've done 16 jobs and got £175 in fees
    In April so far, I've done 12 jobs and got £150 in fees

    I've got 5 freezer jobs booked for a week Monday but nothing else - I think I'll probably be the same if not slightly better off this month.

    Just finished the last of the DIY and have booked in 3 freezer for next week. Need to write the reports now. I love the shop part but really hate the writing up. Feels like being back at school and having to write a book review everytime you read a book!

    This month has been marginally better but that's not saying much as last month I did three jobs! :mad:

    Really annoyed that I cannot do the petrol ones as they are so early in the morning! I usually rely on these to get some cash in. Also someone where I live has just started MS and is pinching all the jobs! :eek: I had a good run before but now I feel like I'm picking up the dregs.

    Typical - my local TNS supermarket came up, urgent job to be done by Sunday. Can't do it as will have LO with me. I would have been tempted to do the RE sandwich shop next door as well :silenced:

    Nope - it says to go alone. I even emailed to double check & they said No.
    I've booked one in May but for a day when he's having a settling in session at creche or I'll get my friend to have him.

    Could have done it today then the diy shop on esa would have been worth it & I'd have grabbed lunch at underground sandwich shop for RE as well!

    Oh yes, I've done loads, filled up hubby's car as well. Had too many of them really, borrowed my neighbours car and filled hers up for her too.


    No, not a one! Where are they all? I did a "GYP" petrol last week but that was an incentive to do some rubbish jobs.
