    Fascinating. We seems to be getting near to what I asked ages ago, what Zandoni does? And Zandoni doesn't seem to know much about that either!
    Again it's none of your business what I do or have done for a living. What qualifications do you need to work in your shop?

    What has that got to do with anything? You certainly wouldn't meet my minimum requirement!

    For some reason you seem obsessed with my occupation and you question my knowledge. So I'd like to know what sort of education you need to work in your shop.

    You obviously also feel it's acceptable that it should take 1.5 hrs to try and diagnose a boiler problem.

    Don't you just love this forum. A load of people thinking they know about everything, when, in fact, they know Cobblers !

    You said a load of people, obviously that would include Money-Saving-King and I just put the cobblers shoe repair thing in for a bit of humour.

    No he means he was talking about you. Hence:

    By the way Zandoni my qualifications are 10 GCSE's grade A to C, mostly A & B & also A levels in Maths, physics & geography. I earn most of my income through self employment as opposed to my retail work.

    Again why are you asking what qualifications are needed to work in my shop? If you like questions then are you finally going to reveal what exactly it is you do?
