Hi all,

Has anyone done the Vetassess Carpenter practical in Accrington? My husband is booked in for August, but I just wanted to know what experiences you have had with the finishing time? It is a good 4hr drive home and I was wondering wether to book him in a B&B or not.

Any other tips for the practical would also be gratefully received!

Thanks

My Oh did it last year and i dont think he finished while 6 ish..... although it may depend on how many are in the group as i have heard others say they finished earlier.

OH had an hour and a half drive home but was tired when he got here.

good luck

Does anyone know of any carpentry jobs in Essex or surrounding? My husband is having to work away all week at the moment. Any help would be appreciated!

Sorry, I know this is for immigration, but need the funds to get there!

Thanks

Hello Ronni98

you would be doing a great favour to Charlie Rara, by giving your VIC SS time line on this thread

Hi John,

Let us know how you get on and how the work situation is for plumbers at the moment. We are sitting tight for now but keen to get going - but partner is only newly qualified as a plumber here in UK and we have no idea if he will be able to get work. He's cluey, a grafter (and he's got a great smile)...but not sure if that will be enough!
