The course was two weeks and included 4 on site asesments which i will be using in the next few months, as i mentioned in the middle of a plumbing course so monday 16th march is when im out in the big wide world, gulp.
I have done a freeby for some one and it does look good so fingers crossed. I will be hopefully just trying to do ceramics for six months to gain confidence then move to other types of tiles.

Hopefully trying to do a good honest job for a reasonable price will get recomondations, and as my grandad used to say do not do a job for someone you would not be happy with in your own home.

Bishbosh.
hope everything works out for you

Care to share any info about your plumbing course, where is it based, are you happy with the content etc. I've looked in the past but most of the courses seem to be way down south (for me anyway), it'd be nice to have a recommendation for somewhere closer to home.

Cheers

:joker: Hi
i dont really want to say the name till its finished as we are 5 weeks in and its been very up and down. At this moment in time i wouldent recommend the course to anybody and the 30 guys who are with me wouldent, but it could all change and i would feel bad if it put someone of and we ended up with a diferant view.As i say 5 weeks left so we are all hoping it improves, the tutors are not the same from now till the end and we all have more of an upbeat feel after just one day with them as they seem to want to share there knowledge more freely. I supose doing the other course has set my expectations of what i would get very high and speaking to the other lads we have spent a lot of money so i think its justified. I will keep you posted week by week on how we are all going as a group because most people operate in a team kind of way with help and guidance.

Cheers

p.s. why do tiles slip down the wall when you use none slip adesive............

Thanks for the speedy reply.

Appreciate what you're saying and thanks for being honest,I dont mind either spending the cash to learn or travelling the miles to get there but unfortunately there's nothing that i'm aware of near to home. Unfortunately recommendations seem very thin on the ground :mad2:
