FFS I leave on the 13th for a 2 week visit.

I can see the missus doing some cash in hand work behind the bar at the local at this rate to fund her shopping

I leave on the 13th too. Good idea you've got there about the job....
I could do a temp job while I'm there and probably earn enough to retire on in the US ...ok well not quite but you know what I mean
