MikeO Posted January 26, 2015 Report Posted January 26, 2015 What we need most is a psychoanalyst. Quote
markjazzbassist Posted January 26, 2015 Report Posted January 26, 2015 What we need most is a psychoanalyst. Went to university and have a degree in psychology. Was going to go on to get my doctorate but ending up in a rock band touring for 6 years. I don't want to go back to school so you'll have to settle with a quack shrink. Matt 1 Quote
rubecula Posted January 26, 2015 Report Posted January 26, 2015 I have a degree in Biology and I repair aeroplanes if anybody has a broken plane that is in need of a pest control technician? Quote
Newty82 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Posted January 26, 2015 I did shit at school...so don't ask me for any info on GCSE level studying. Got some sort of Diploma level Management and Leadership qualifications...so I might be able to do something there! Possibly. Probably not actually. Love my DIY...do all sorts...tiling, plumbing, painting & decorating, gardening, deck building, shed building. Made many mistakes over time...as they say, that's how you learn. But to be honest, Googles my best mate. So anything I could tell you, it's out there. Quote

But to be honest, Googles my best mate. So anything I could tell you, it's out there. I had to "learn" DIY the hard way. Third house we lived in had nothing in the kitchen except a sink hanging off the wall so I had to build one from scratch; so armed with an E grade (fail) in design and tech O level from twenty years earlier and a hand drill (couldn't afford an electric one) I did it. Not buying units but making them; very proud of it in the end. Got the bug and have done quite a bit since (though I hate decorating with a passion) but fucked shoulder has put an end to it sadly. I'm too old to learn to use my left hand . Quote
johnh Posted January 26, 2015 Report Posted January 26, 2015 I can give you contact details for good - plumbers, electricians, painters & decorators, central heating maintenance, tree surgeons, drive block paving, roofers, car mechanics, carpet layers, tilers. Can't help on grass cutters as I mow the lawn myself. Quote

I'm too old to learn to use my left hand . I do enjoy my 'home projects'. I'm poor at budgeting for them though...I just shrug my shoulders think 'bah, cost doesn't matter'. Then shit myself and sulk when the credit card bill comes through. Always overspend. When the time comes, I'll take great pleasure in cutting up that credit card (well, asking them to reduce the credit limit. Same thing!) It's good to have built up these 'skills', in this modern commercial world it's good to be able to fall back on something to keep cash rolling in should it all go tits up. And it nearly has a couple of times in the last few years. Maybe I'll retrain...I'll be good as a 'jack of all trades, master of none'. And I don't mean that as a compliment to myself!!! Quote
gethinO Posted January 26, 2015 Report Posted January 26, 2015 I'm a Primary school teacher in a welsh language school in Cardiff. Been teaching 3 years and I still don't know if I like it or not. Went to university and studied a Primary Education 3 year course so I'm fairly stuck if I want out of teaching with my degree. Who knows! Quote
