I went round the block a few times before I feel into being a sparks, I absolutely love being a sparks, there is so much variety in our work I would not do anything else, even when I am old and past it I plan to get a laser pointer to aim at the problem with my arthritic hands so my apprentice can set about it. while I tell the in my day stories.

not very clear just seeing how many sparks like their jobs could have put it in better words just feel like i am losing my passion for the job which isnt good still do the best job i can but dont enjoy it.

when i started in the 90's , being a spark was a respected , rewarding and varied vocation.
these days its just a load of tedious dross to be honest.
