I was a Sparky In the TV trade for nearly 20 years
and then I walked out of the Workshop managers job at Comet to be a Lab technician at a local forensic firm
....and loving the lack of responsibility

I am a sales manager for
TLC Stairlifts so know Patty's Sarum 260's etc pretty well (I use rival products these days but was fully trained with that photographic rail design etc).
We do lots of stairlifts and short rise lifts for wheelchair use + through floor lifts in domestic applications.
TLC. Tender Loving Care? Could be, but is actually 'The Lift Company'

Doh!! Fireman!
After 20 years as a Fireman and driver I went for promotion a year ago and the dam fools promoted me! I now have the fun of being in charge of the fire engine and at fires!
I was a part time motorbike instructor for 10 year up until the bike school lost it's training pad due to the olympics.
I have always done a bit of kitchen, bathroom fitting and tiling and any other work people want me to do for them.
