Just wondering if there would be anyone needing a driver of a car or small class 2 truck on a temporary basis.

I am currently retired (53) and helped out a scaffolder doing a few hours here and there around Christchurch and enjoyed this.

Vehicle would need to be WOF/COF/RUC/REGO etc.
Automatic. (Might consider manual on inspection (if newer).
Pay negotiable.

Would suit someone that has lost licence.

I live in Mairehau.
Don’t want to be gone hours as I have 3 barky dogs!
