i hope i word this right, if you get an ongoing contract, how much should the cost increase every year. I have the chance of a small contract, 1 man with tools doing maintenace around a large garden. If i get the contract, i will have it for the life expectansy of the homeowner(lady early fifties)so you could be talking 40 years. It will be getting paid by the government, so it not like i can just say to her every year(give me another tenner) This is a good wee job for a very good cause, but i dont want to be stuck working for the same money in 20 years time, when simple wording in a contract will solve this. I have never committed to a contract before, thanks for any help guys:biggrin:

it depends how long it can sit about. Firewood and the cash will be in your pocket by the weekend, chip would be the second quickest, but top dollar lovely size packaging would be worth a fortune but a lot of work.
