mw - quick thought.
Make sure you take a good reference from your current employer with you and update your c.v.
This is something you should do every month or three.
I think you'll find the enjoyment/skills you took from your early joinery course will really help you now.CAP[UK]for FREE EXPERT DEBT &BUDGET HELP:

There is a slight problem regarding the new job...it requires a CRB check because I will be working at schools a lot/with the elderly. So, I got a caution from giving some stock away to a 'friend' in my last job and this will (I think) show up, even though it was only a caution. So...although the caution is not related to anything that would mean I cannot work with children/the elderly, it does drag up the fact that I gave some wood away for free and this new job will require me to be selling the exact same thing. Not good. I haven't mentioned this yet, but I am due a phonecall to discuss wages and hours in the next week and feel it would be a good idea to be up front about this. So this job could be all off depending on how this conversation goes...:(Total in ISAs = £8,863.500

Hi MW,
Just read your last post, how long ago did you get this caution? As they usually drop of your criminal record after several years...
I have my fingers X for you
