Thanks.
I was half hoping not to have to move away from Liverpool for a bit as my Dad is on his last legs but if I have to do what is necessary to feed my family and unlike a lot of people I see where I live I cannot survive on benefits.

That is true. I remember feeling dirty flicking through the Lady mag in WH Smiths.

Certainly the Lady used to be good for such posts, Mrs Maxi was a housekeeper before she retired and got more than one job throuugh the Lady.

My First Butlers job was through the MOD's SRB's but the second one I got was by reading the Lady. I applied for a job from a newly started up agency called Greycoats. They are quite big now

Have you had a look at or contacted the UK based yacht crew companies. Their clients sometimes ask them to fill land based positions. Just a thought and different angle for you.

Best of luck!

I wish you he very best of luck old son. I would have thought that British Butlers would have been in high demand in the United States.
There are a few making a decent living down here here with the Diplomatic people, problem is of course, the old egalitarian ethos kicks in.
PS, my best boots are looking terrific thanks to you.

Just so that you dont have to hide in WH Smiths to ready the lady. some adverts appear on their website which is at:

Also found that Gumtree websites also do some domestic positions.

Glad u got it sorted out.
