Staying away money?

[hamdogg]

Are you meaning how much as an extra per night? Not food money??

When I first started lodging away 22 years ago I got b&b plus £25 at the end I was getting hotel plus breakfast plus £47.55 and a logging allowance of £250 a week.

 

I didn't explain it very well, well not at all:001_rolleyes:

 

We used to get £25/night plus bed, breakfast and evening meal. I lived on my lodging money most weeks.

It would take a lot more than 20-30 quid a day to keep me away from my family.

But if I were single, party time.

 

Sometimes I'd pay 20-30 quid to have a night away:biggrin:

Let's hope Mrs Prentice doesn't see this post.

Believe me, sometimes she'd pay even more:biggrin:

I'd want £300.

Whores have definitely outstripped woodcutters in the wages stakes.

This thread got me thinking. I dug out some old pay slips earlier, in 1996 I was on £120/day plus digs and staying away money. How things have changed!

I worked away for a week this year for a company driving machines, there was no extra pay.

We got picked up from home and dropped back, put up in a very nice b n b, worked 12 hours, came back to a big dinner and pudding and a cuppa, then it was pretty much bedtime and repeat.

I never even considered staying away money, I've worked for myself for years so someone paying my board and food was great and there was plenty of hours to work.

All I did was spend £30 and filled a box full of food for through the day that lasted all week and I bought some sandwiches off the b n b lady for £2 for the Thursday , Friday .

Job done!
