Probably some bloke with a certificate designed on his computer that he will sell you a copy for some exhorbitant fee bestowing you with membership. It will mean diddly squat to customers and bring in zero business. Far better directing your efforts to sites that will give you free trade listings etc.

Could be like the Guild of Master Masons, they run the country.

Well been a tough day at the pit-face and this has at least given me a laugh. Have been thinking of setting up the Association Of Traffic Light Windscreen Washers, Guild of Master Hedge Trimmers and not forgetting The National Guild of Guild Formation Associations. Do they have a junior membership scheme The Honourable Company of Sticker Stickers?

Yes I remember the discussion. I think the conclusion we came to was that an 'industry' which you only need a day's training to join doesn't really need 'regulating' and it isn't really a 'guild' because rather than being a group of like-minded tradesmen it is just one bloke trying to line his pockets.

Is it still going? The website doesn't seem to be there any more.

Just looked for them and their page has disappeared - very good for a membership organisation!

oh he`s still trading Adam....just been looking on ebay....and i am sure as i was scrolling down the page..his ad wizzed past....they aught to pull it....another thing n all...i was under the impression that a `guild` was made up of supposedly skilled people......so when i looked at an ebay ad for a kewteck KT61...and was greeted with the words...`it has pass and fail indications for unskilled operators that cant interpret test results`.....WOW!!
