    Hey guys. Im an apprentice just starting college and was wondering if there are any sites on the net to help me with revision and extra practice? Main stuff Im looking for right now is determining current in resistors, and transponding formulas. Thanks.

    Electrician knife.

    I think because it is now a commonly used weapon for gangsters. Knife crime and all that. No chance of someone wanting to use it for learning their trade or anything daft like that!!

    Electrician knife.

    Arranging a holiday.

    Ok. Im going to risk totally sounding like an idiot here, but I'll ask anyway. Me and my mates all want to go on holiday next year, but I've been drawn the short straw of organising it and getting it arranged. Trouble is, I have never arranged a holiday myself before in my life. It will be my...

    Trial period over. I think it must be a formality that they put on letters to cover themselves, as I seemed to be the only person who knew about it!
