rent a room scheme.....

Hi... I am thinking of using the 'rent a room' scheme, where you can earn £4.250 pa and not pay tax.... have any of you experience of this or just lodgers in general? My house is such that lodger would only share kitchen and front door... any advice?

I used to rent a room to Ford graduate trainees. At least you knew they were of a certain standard and had already been through several interviews. Any big employers near you? Give them a ring.
