I attended a business development lunchtime gathering for small business owners. The guest speaker briefly referred to white van man, electricians, plumbers and the like. As self-employed individuals who desire to be earning around 35-38K he claimed they should be charging £43.60 per hour. Built into this would be the the emoluments taken for granted in many employed situations where holiday pay, sick pay and pension contributions are standard.

I went to a local pub at nine o’clock Christmas Eve and replaced a main fused switch that had failed closing the kitchen.

I billed £94 labour and materials, being an existing customer. However the pub went bust and I have the paperwork from the insolvency firm including their scale of fees.
