Bit of a begging letter this...

I would welcome the oppurtunity to earn some extra cash - wondered if anyone might have some leads...

I was principally thinking of some AutoCAD work or something using the qualifications i have - I am an engineer with proper draughtsman experience.

However I also have knowledge (occasional qualifications) in photography, electronics, mechanics etc and can turn my hand to manual labour eg good at gardening, knowledge of construction sites etc...

basically i wish to study for an MSc abroad next year and its going to cost me. The more cash i can earn the better for me (means less loan).

if any one has any sensible suggestions i would be grateful, such as agencies that might know of weekend work etc, possibly a bit of cash in hand work. I don't want the extra work to rule my life and i dont want it to take over from my 'proper' job, i was just thinking there must be some way of earning a bit extra...

Sorry if i have overstepped the mark Ted, feel free to delete thread if its not appropriate. Just thinking someone may have done something similar in the past.

Regards to all

Dunno about Cheshire, but up round here (Edinburgh) it's easy to get £7 an hour gardening - whilst this isn't exactly gonna fill the bank, it's a fairly therapeutic way of getting a bit fitter & earning some beer money.

Alternatively you could moonlight as a minicab driver...
