You can make a few bob per day if you have all the right kit. Like most jobs, at the beginning its all spend spend spend but after that its the other way round. The spend phase is when most folk give up and who can blame them. Got my van Mot yesterday and needed bits and pieces but I feel like I have won the lottery because its 14 years old.

5 years later you're still spending is that why are still only making a few bob

Beginning to come in now that I have my new mot. Should be my best year, outgoings heading down and income heading up. Best thing I did was advertise on local booklet because I'm getting local work, no better work to achieve, little diesel and little time from home. ?

And the constant boasting is back ???

I have always had the ability to make folk bite. Eventually in the station they just ignored me so i had to move station until they did the same. ?

Good to have you back, I had been wondering what happened to you

Called to quote a job and decided to knock on a few doors for 20-30 mins as it looked an easy street for parking, picked up four additional house fronts (terrace street no rear access) so very quick work to clean.
live gone half days knocking and had no luck at times so picking up five houses in thirty mins is great!
So newbie’s don’t get down if you have a few quiet sessions knocking as every now and then you’ll tap into a power hour and pick up a clump of work.

Good on you. I’m 57 next month and I’m currently on 4 days a week. I have a good pension fund so have no intention of working past 60.
Similar to you, football, fishing, drinking, golf, ska weekends and holidays.
Sod working all the time, life is short, only here for a visit ????‍?

I’ve been advertising on FB for the last 5 week took 46 new jobs on of which I’ll end up dropping about 7 or 8 of them as I can see them being a pain in the arse having to chase up for payment. Lost 3 regulars also since switching from trad to wfp. I’m hoping to pick up around another 60 by the end of March. All in all it’s started well.

That pishes all over my 10 jobs and a few more in the pipeline but I don't advertise as such, hopefully you'll hit your targets
