Reckon I could manage that, but give the black pud to the dog. Might have to stop halfway for a sip of tea mind.

Newspaper round, a big one. I can still remember the smell of printers ink and how filthy my hands were when I got home.

From 12, ride to the newsagents about a mile and a half away away, for a 7am start on a newspaper round. Hated Sunday papers as they were so much thicker, making it a two bag round. Head home a couple of hours or so later for some breakfast.
If I was unlucky I'd need to be at church a couple of miles away, for 10 o'clock mass as an altar boy. If I was very unlucky, I copped for high mass at 11.

Same here, and then along came the supplements and magazines as well.

I had a weekend paper round.
It paid far better than a weekday round. And you didn’t have to be up too early either.
I was getting about £8 for 2 days. The weekday round was about £10 for 5 days.

Mine was a nightmare with both of these and extra houses which wanted a Sunday paper. I had to bring it home in a granny pull along trolley and then split it in the house before taking out in the bag.

The weekday round one was brilliant as I could whizz round on the bike in about 45mins, got loads of Christmas tips despite the occasional crash into a door when riding on ice.

I also did the local herald & post which was a weekly paper with supplements but you had to pack up the supplements into each paper. It took forever and was a family effort for pocket money.
