How did you get started?

[alph250]

This is where everyone gets there chance to tell there life story!

I thought it would be intresting to say what you do now, how you got there and where you plan to end up! I'll start!

Started of as an apprentice marine fitter working for Caterpillar building engines on a production line, went on to specialise working as a Marine Hydraulic engineer for a company that went bust! did that for 2 years, then from there i got a Trainee building services engineer job with Carillon and im just finishing off a degree in building services and i spend most of my time designing and managing installations on the mechanical side of commercial buildings!

My next move? probably back to the tools, nothing challenges the mind more than a hands on role!

as long as you dont end up stacking shelf



my mate was running his firm from 1985 in marbella now he said the work has stop
his leg is bad so the only thing to do is to return from Spain to England and stack or work at b and q
a bit like putting him on the shelf
i fill sorry for him but here in Spain the government don't help foreigners
you don't get free housing or ub40

something that england may want to think about doing be for it goes pop

you get sod all in spain
the embassy may help very little for your return
the police will take you out in a box then put you in a hole in the wall in 24 hrs , then send you a bill, then send you a death tax bill
you lose 99% of court cases
or you win then the other parties appeals ,spanish, then you lose
age concern help to the best they can
the eu mp a joke. he said some time ago they dont have the funds
but pays his boy friend a good wonga/wage


other than that the sun is shining 29c

you can be top of the pack one year then filling skip the next unless your have back up plans /something for rainy days
and with my mate his age and bad leg don't help him all the best vic..
