hello everyone

[BenC]

Hi everyone, im new on here my names Ben from west wales, looking to go out plumbing on my own soon, ive been doing the plumbing course with train 4 trade skills i know its not the best way about it but just simply cannot go to college as i wouldnt be able to afford to live with paying rent etc, but i have been working with a builder/plumber for the last 6 years so i know roughly what im doing, but as with any trade theres always something new to learn. just wanted to do the course to get some sort of paper work behind me. just bought myself a van and now looking into designing my self some adverts and finding insurance and a good accountant. ive already got most tools i will need, i dont plan on geting into gas work as the area i will be working in doesnt really have mains gas its only the coastline that has it.

anyway look forward to posting more on the forum and no doubt ill have a few questions in the future.
