Yeah it feels big but you will get regular customers who want you to maintain their plumbing work because your cheap enthusiastic and good (most importantly). If you get 12 customers and 2 jobs a month off either one thats all the people you'll have to deal with. Also I would tell them you do general work as well as painting plasterboarding and bits of joinery that way there is always something to do. If you dont do any of that if you have a friend offer to work for free with him and learn or offer a tradesman doesnt matter if he's a plumber you will need to learn to plasterboard anyway. I learnt it off working with a joiner.

Ive done a few days labouring with a few plasterers as my aim is to specializing in complete bathroom refurbs inc plastering and tiling and im a dab hand with most diy stuff so that shouldn't be a problem.

Im doing a day with my mate on monday, gonna see if he will let me tag along everyday for a few months so i can get the feel for it and then gna grow a pair and go on me own hopefully. Wish me luck! lol

Sounds like your doing the right thing. If someone wants a bathroom installing they will generally ask for a bathroom installer not a plumber anyway and its satisfying work generally. Can be a pain if the walls are really squint but it's something you gotta check before you give your quote.

start with small jobs only, working from your car, build it up from there
