Thanks for all the ideas, you people think bigger than I do.
I so far have proof reader, librarian and bookseller, with estate agent maybe on the back burner, and sign language open as a possibility.
I did have Teaching Assistant on there, but again I couldn't live alone on what they pay
Mum's friend has put my name forward for a reading scheme at the local school. It can only help to have that on my CV. Although Mum has been her usual positive self and said that by the time my CRB (police check) comes back I'll be back in a full time job and unavailable. Don't get me wrong - me working again is a positive thing and something to aspire to. It's just Mum's insistence on only thinking inside the box that grates. She was the main reason I left school at 16 after all - believing it was better to get a headstart in the workplace, and further education was a waste of time. Ah well, I was also seduced by the idea of being a grown-up working in an office with the money to move away from home, so I'm not exactly being fair.
