According to social website alljoinon.com, if housewives got paid at the going rate for doing household chores, they would earn around £30,000 a year.

(The average mum works around nine hours a day every day, and if she were paid for the amount of time she spends doing the chores it would look something like this:-

For £8 an hour a nanny would earn £36.80 a day.
Cleaning and tidying for £7.10 a day.
Cooking £17.30 a day.
Making the beds is worth about £1.29 for a chambermaid.
Washing up for £2.57.
Doing the family finances for 39 minutes, would cost £12.50 if an accountant did it.
A taxi driver would earn £2.53 for the 23 minutes of ferrying children around.
And a mystery shopper £2.10 for the 18 minutes a day of grocery shopping.

Ah - but we all know that mums are priceless.)
