Mooching round the 50, with the flag
Mate you keep asking for suggestions but you're not listening to what people are saying.

it's been said about 5 times, at 13 no-one will legitamately employ you so that's tescos, call centres etc etc out of the window

You best bet is a bit of cash in hand work at your uncles hotel if you get up and ask him or the car washing/lawn cutting etc.

ok.

I was only asking for more ideas, the more money I get coming in, the more I can travel to ball!

I'll look into the paper round and working with my uncle shouldn't be any problem. Thanks everyone!

also, legally, you cant sell something that you yourself cannot buy.

Hence why you cant work in a pub (need to be 18 to purchase alcohol)

Cant work in say HMV selling DVD's as some you have to be 18...


Best bet will be a paper round.

Have to say though, your spelling and grammer is far better at 13 than most people on here :p (and im not taking the p1$$ either)

Haha. Thanks! :)

I go to a grammer school so I generally have to learn this all the time!

I understand the HMV one. One more question. Would I be able to work in a café or a burger bar? Or will health and safety be an issue .:rolleyes:

(By the way, you missed an apostraphe on Can't :p)

Edit: Can I work cleaning plates in a pub? I'm just wondering, I haven't had any legal experiences as far as I can remember. Nor have I had any jobs before!

Bit out there but labourng at a building site maybe doing some of the easier stuff?

I worked at a computer consultancy for £50 a week 9am-6pm when i was 14.


Baisicly, anywhere out of the public eye where the boss can pay you cheaply with cash in hand is your best bet.

Sunday markets

Here's what you do,

Get up early and I mean early on a sunday and get yourself down to your nearest sunday market (get on your bike if you have to). Start asking the traders if they need any help with anything, ie: setting up, clearing up, getting them a cup-o-tea, basically anything you can think of.
I used to do this down my local market in Slough and I used to get loads of jobs and earn a few quid that way.
The trick is to turn up every week so that they can rely on you and as you gain their trust they give you more and more work and thus you earn more cash, Its worth a shot.

Good luck dude.

9am - 6pm may be an issue with school :p I could ask my other uncle to work at his business on a saturday.
