I was working for tosco at 14, a good few years ago but it wasnt a problem them, fairly normal to have school in the week and work on Saturdays - do Saturday girls still exist?

MY eldest was working before 16 as a baby sitter, did a college course for it and then she started working in a hotel. they then realised she was only 15 so they had to let her go for 6 weeks and then took her on again after she'd turned 16. She always was a very big spender so she always had to work to afford her extravagant lifestyle.

I worked in a supermarket at 14 on the tills, weekends, evenings, and holidays.

Rock-a-bye baby, in the tree top
When the wind blows, the cradle will rock
When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall
And down will come baby, cradle and all

I started work, Saturdays and Sundays, in a garden shop on my 14th birthday (OK, a fair while ago now!), ended up running it on Sundays a few months later! Always remember carting out a bag (half hundredweight) or spuds to the car of a very handsome young man Must have looked odd, this spindly 14 year old girl with a bag of spuds over her shoulder walking with a very fit looking young man!

Always pleased to help Especially after 2 years of being woken every 2 hours by my DD (admittedly 21 years ago:)). Good luck over all the noise emanating from this thread :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Every 2 hours would kill us.How did you cope.I hope when you look after the grandchildren they sleep all night.

No idea how I coped!!! Apparently I went around looking like a Zombie most of the time. Annoyingly I have never been able to sleep more than about 5 hours a night since that! OH never got up to her, always using the excuse that he had to get up early the next day! Just as I had finally persuaded him to give a bit more help she started sleeping through! And for anyone that asks, I did try leaving her more than once, then had to clean the bedding from where she had been sick :(

Never have the grandson overnight (not yet anyway) as they live so close, but apparently he is a good sleeper!

Grew up in a village near woods - spent my time climbing trees (and falling out of them face first into stinging nettles ). Gives you a lot of natural strength!
