Entrepreneurs of the future

Two little girls aged 11 knocked my door and asked if they could clean my car for £2.50. It was pouring with rain, but they seemed so keen. I agreed and handed them both bin bags to shelter inside whilst they worked. I have a webcam on the drive and watched them scrub and wipe. Worried for the coat of my lovely little MG I spotted one of the girls taking photos. These days of technology and me a camera freak – I secretly photographed them cleaning the car, also just in case I needed it for police evidence at a later date in case I got robbed!! Not paranoid as you can see. I was so impressed I paid the little darlings £2.50 each and mentioned the photo they had taken. Because my car was so nice they wanted to show their Mums that they were working. I surprised them with a present as a Thank You. 4 photos of the pair of them at work – how cool was I – well at least the girls thought it was cool. Bless them I hope they come back next week. (They will probably be back tomorrow). Moral is – don’t be bored – go out and get a job no matter what it is and things will happen you never dreamed of.
