unlacedgecko 1,467 Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Bad luck! This happened to me 3 years ago! Same time, just on the run up to Xmas. I didn't know what to do? My advice is be safe, register self employed, get insured, (mine is £90 per year) use an accountant (mine is £180 per year) an advertised (I use Gumtree) I've never looked back :-) I went self employed in 2012. I love it. Had a brief period working for a large company last year, but it really didn't agree with me! It appears I've developed a problem with authority since I left the Army... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hope you get summat. I'm just after a bit of cash in hand to get me by till I find a full time role. I found a bit of beating coming up but dates ain't set yet but things like that as can pretty much go any day, helping out on land etc. I've not got a trade apart from thermography which is too specialised to just fall into a job lol Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites

David Aiken 253 Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Bad luck! This happened to me 3 years ago! Same time, just on the run up to Xmas. I didn't know what to do? My advice is be safe, register self employed, get insured, (mine is £90 per year) use an accountant (mine is £180 per year) an advertised (I use Gumtree) I've never looked back :-) What do you advertise to do pal? General maintenance! (ie D & K Maintenance) Yesterday I had my regular Astro Turf jet washing job, 3 1/2 hours for £ The day before cutting Ivy from a 1760`s Manor House wall (I've a ceiling to paint and a cat flap to fit there Monday) Fencing is a good one, as is general plumbing! Around here I can charge £200 to fit a pair of Bath taps (taps £40-70) which is no more than 2 hours work. I advertise Rabbit, Pigeon and Fox control (lots of farms and small holdings locally) I don't charge for this but pick up work while out and about. Garden Work: Gardens Cleared: Small Trees Removed: (I have a log burner so save a fortune on fuel!) Gutters Cleared: Interior - Exterior Painting: (Inc whole house) Sheds Erected: House Clearance: Glazing Work: (qualified glazier) All Fencing Work: Bathrooms - Kitchens Fitted: Patios - Brickwork Jet Washed: (Good earner!) Pest Control: (Pick up other work) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
