Collecting paper money. aged 13. I took oit over from my cousin. I was paid a £.

I doubt it'd be allowed now though - walking around the streets with a bagful of cash, but i didn't think anything of it at the time.

How times change!

Yes I too had a Saturday job in hairdressers. It was good fun and I earned my own pocket money but made me realise that Hairdressing was most definitely NOT the job for me
