My farthest job is about 18 miles but I have travelled further for larger more lucrative work and would do so again.

As long as the job is worth it, as far as 100 miles, after that, rather be home every night. Half my work is about 40 to 50 miles away. All motorway, so I'm not bothered.

Don't want to hijack thread but on a similar note how close to home do you work?  Do you prefer to work out of your immediate vacinity or the closer the better?  Just out of interest.

I'd go anywhere if it made more money, but as it stands, about 7 miles out is my furthest.
Most are within 5...but barely any within 1...!

I do prefer not to do any cleaning for close neighbours but I make an exception for a friend nearby.  Apart from the friend, my closest job is about half a mile or so away.

Nearly forgot to mention that I also clean for the flat below me.  That's an FOC courtesy job though because I soak their windows when I do mine.

Closest are 15 yards - in 2 directions

farthest is approx 12 miles - can only travel in certian directions otherwise would end up with wet feet and i cant see many houses out in the north sea!

about 6 mile radius, a couple of days about 10miles but will probably get rid of this eventually.

My average journey to work is 15-20 mins.
