Just browsing amazon, don't know if it's a mistake but type in ck tools and there's a massive price drop on loads of their expensive cutters and driver sets etc! £40 driver sets for £6 plus £4 delivery.. And the decent wire cutters!
Hi, Is anyone else being shafted with his impossible test. This is NOT a C&G test and is just a blaitant excuse to stop you booking your practical sessions. I have failed it 3 times now. The questions have been written by a 4 year old making no sense and the multi choice questions have no...

what do people think i appreciate there are a lot of guys out there working as plumbers who dont have quals and are probably better than some with quals but generally what do people have to say on this.

Why not phone them and ask them how come they are so...
