Congrats COB! Maybe see if you can get some time doing an internship with an engineering firm. Unpaid labour for them, experience for you possibly?

A lot of the apprenticeships learning curve is down to what I want to do. For example I can take extra learning like higher NVQ's or a degree and Corus will pay for it. It's all down to what I want to achieve and whether I have the go.
It's something once started, I'll sit down with my fiancee and discuss with her.

Torillions sticks or something like that. I do still use them, and not for picking my snozzle

If I'd thought that's what you were using them for, I'd have bought the extra-large!
