Not too sure what the going rate is exctly, but if it's anything like over here it can't be bad mate. Most areas in the UK are crying ut for tilers.

Hey thanks for the help I have been asked to lay tiles on top of vinyl floor tiles never done this before is it sound to do so

No no no no no, don't do it!

I'd rather spend some time getting them up, some adhesives might actually stick to them, but they were probably never stuck themselves well enough to be tiled over.

If they were stuck with a solvent based glue, you can usually heat them a little with a hot air gun and they come unstuck, if they have been stuck with a two part mix you sometimes have to chip at them and just rip them up with elbow grease, but they will always come up.
