    To go central lighting or nnot - thats the question?

    Agreed a basic price but I explained that this would depend on attic conditions and any changes the client wanted. There's a lot of LED strip now appearing in the spec which is making me this a central wiring panel on each floor may make the lighting easier

    Validity of old qualifications

    2382 sounds a good start as your right you don't forget a trade and I've stayed involved in and around it for years.

    Validity of old qualifications

    Thanks for the vote of confidence Glennspark. It got me upset a bit as well I don't think there was much at the time to touch a 4 year apprenticeship - but I probably would say that!. Thing is, I'm not sure what I need to do next to get back in the trade in terms of catch up courses or who I...
