Thank you Di for this week’s questions.
1. As a child, how did you make extra pocket money?
My first job at 16 was working in the supermarket in the nearest big town called Dunne’s Stores. I absolutely loved it and met the most amazing people, such an eye opener for me at that time in my life.
2. What did you spend your pocket money on?
I have absolutely no recollection although I was a great saver from an early age so I think I saved a good bit of it. Maybe comics, sweets, excursions 🤔
3. Was your first pay packet in cash, cheque (check) or directly into your bank?
The money went straight into my back account and the hourly rate was £3.30.
4. Have you ever received a discount for paying for something in cash?
Not that I can recall.
Gratitude: Grateful to have survived a very busy Monday and my first gym class at my new gym 😅
I had loads of part-time jobs as a kid. I worked in a corner store after school, babysat, worked in restaurants, sports and clothes shops.

I worked in a supermarket when I was a teenager. It was a fun experience…not just all the people I met, but also seeing the interesting things they would purchase.
Probably one of the more interesting jobs I’ve had.

Love that Richard. I thoroughly enjoyed it too, if only the wages were higher.
