I wish you luck. It's a really difficult time for the construction industry and you probably heard of Connaughts going out of business a few months ago. I feel for anyone looking for a job at the moment but do hope you find an avenue soon. If you're determined to do plumbing you could try self employment? Just as difficult but at least you'll be able to practise some of what you learned before you forget everything.

[dontknowitall]

You've done well to have this number of responses from here - can only wish you luck though as many of us are just keeping our heads above water - probably not the best euphemism (speling?) to use for plumbers, come to think of it.
