Welcome along but at 54 give your head a wobble. I'm 51 and looking at coming off of the tools in the next few years. Bad knees and thumbs.

Ecky thump!Nob-ert a lad
Still the pay is great!!! Once fully qualified with a degree in teaching, A Level 3 in Plumbing / Heating & gas + good electrical knowledge, plus your A1 award you will be able to commended the princely sum of around £34K a year.
Oh & don't tell me the holidays are good cos you will either be sick, doing prep, or sorting out the workshop ready for the next lot & if you do manage to slip away for a couple of weeks you will be paying top dollar as the schools are out to.
Still want to do it ??
Well Done, ask away there are no silly questions from friendsHi Guys, just thought I'd introduce myself.
At the grand age of 54, I have just qualified as a wet plumber.
Previously, I was a teacher of engineering at an FE college for 18 years and before that run my own motor vehicle repair business.
Needless to say, friends and family think I'm mad but I'm really enjoying the challenges that each day brings.
I guess I will be looking for advice as time moves forward and from what i have seen so far, you guys do not hold back in your support for those of us new to the trade.
I start about 4am but am snoring in the chair by 21.00
regards centralheatking
