That's the opposite to what I was thinking.

I though you lot would flog your leccy gear to the Electrical Trainee wanabees and move on to earn mega moola as plumbers leaving the Electrical Trainee wanabees to squabble over the leccy trade.

They are as well, I remember a fitter earning 2k a week about 14 years ago, the site agent reckoned he lived in a mansion of an house lol and that was when house prices were half of what they are today.

Tell me about it!!

I was back at horsepickle again yesterday seeing a bloke who thinks I may have had a Mini Stroke and want me to have (another) MRI scan.There was also the now obligatory blood test to undergo as well and I'm beginning to wonder how much I have left!

While I've been laid-up I have missed-out on 4, 4 bed newbuilds which would have been all the wiring, plumbing, heating & bathroom & kitchen fitting!!! A LOT of money to me!!

I think I was born under the sign of the Three Blind *******s!!
