There are loads of places round your way for less than £500 just check the C & G website, put your post code in and find the closest:)

I have my own transport and most tools as well do not know if this helps or not

got a interveiw monday where I have to fix some fridges , I have absolutly no idea what they are but as long as they are not domestics running off Isobutane I should have a good chance of getting the job.

Good luck Andy, let us know how you get on!

got the job , hopefully it will keep me in the trade till i get back onto industrial stuff , I had to fix three fridges and change a compressor , they are all on test now so hopefully they will be working in the morning when i go back in
