Earning Opportunities
My story.

My mum is now retired, but as usual this means she is constantly busy at home doing more than she used to at work. My dad works at home in a computer shop, sometimes this means the money is not always flowing. In the time of the Credit Crunch though, people like my dad tend to benefit, as people try to repair their computers rather than buy new, so they come to my dad.
Times are still hard though and my mum has decided something needs to change. She walks retired greyhounds weekly with her friend who built some kennels to look after the dogs until they get re-homed. Her friend always has people who own greyhounds asking her if she can babysit a dog for a week or two while the owner goes on holiday, as she can't do this she suggested to my mum that we convert our garage into a 'holiday home' for greyhounds.
We have the space, but the garage is completely full of 15 year old junk since we moved in, and it will take a lot of time and money to clear, which we haven't got.
Hopefully though we will be able to really get on with this, and the rate to baby sit a dog is usually £100 per dog per week, so I hope this can go through, maybe then our family will get a steady income during the summer.
