Default Want to help look after my corns.......and get paid!

I am looking for somebody local to SE9 to come in for an hour or so each evening (Mon-Fri) to do a bit of cleaning and water changes for my corns. Probably suit somebody still at school with an interest in herps. Parental approval required.

I've got 3 kids of my own but there all too busy (acronym for lazy twats) to help me out. Full training will be given. £4 a day / £20 per week for 5 hours work and as much fun as you can have!

I might want to swop one weekday for one weekend day when United are at home or on the rare occassion that I manage to get a ticket for an away game. I would also want you to cover for me when I'm on holiday or away on business.

Please email me with your details (name, age, school, post code) if you are interested, once you have discussed it with your parents, so that I can arrange to meet with you and them.

Cheers,
Patrick.

Good idea mate, I was thinking of doing something like this, as I work away a lot, but luckily my stepdads grandson (dunno what that makes him to me!) has taken an intrest and has started helping out.

Step-nephew? Assuming his Mum or Dad are your step-brother or step-sister. Either way I would suggest Godsend probably best describes him, seeing as he's helping out!!

Cheers mate.

Hi Nige - It wasn't my kids was it?


Doesn't appear to be much interest anyway. I've only had one PM in response...............they'd rather hang about on street corners moaning that there's nothing for them to do!!


Cheers,
Patrick.

How about offering a packet of rolling tobacco and an 8 pack of Stella?

I'm 32 but would travel. You're welcome to interview my mother too

JK, good luck with your search.
