My first holiday job was at the plant nursery across the road - he paid me a five pound note - I took it home and was standing in front of the open fire - we lived in a huge draughty old house - my Dad opened the front door - in came gale force wind and my 5 pound note sent into the fire - I can still remember the absolute shock as we watched the money burn - at the time Dads business was really struggling so he gave me an IOU - my next job was much better I went to work in a book and toy shop in the Main Street - she was a lovely lady and you were allowed to read when there were no customers - I spent my first pay on a beautiful leather journal
My Mum used to often talk about her first pay - she spent it on a red beret - a man came into the village on a bike selling French beret and she couldnÔÇÖt resist - she was never any good with money
Better get cracking Hockey at 10am they are playing Auckland - never ever beaten Auckland today might be the day
