    UK Tiling Courses, Swindon - Anyone Been??

    Hi, Has anyone attended a tiling course at UK Tiling Courses, Swindon? I'm particulary interested in attending one of their courses due to their location and also the underfloor heating training thats included. Any info is much appreciated, Thanks Graeme.
