out working today it got me thinking of the prices I used to charge when I first started in 1975
my average price then was £1-50 for a 3 bed semi/bungalow
I think my best house in those days was a big house in the country @ £10, took me 1 hour to do
I also had a YMCA hostel job, this job took me nearly all day doing it trad (no wfp back then) this job was £50 my best job on the books,
my average earnings then were between £150 - £180 per week
Also bare in mind in those days no one had conservatories either
