Been messing around with wires since i was 15, which is quite a few years ago.

trained in the navy for 9 years and have been a subby since 1982 (was it really that long ago)

qualifications might as well be written in arabic on a peanut if you can believe the trouble i had when trying to explain them to the 12 year old on the end of the JIB phone.

decided not to apply for a grading, have never needed one in over 25 years.

have worked on most types of install, some enjoyable some not.

got my 17th a few months ago, cant believe what it cost to be taught how to read a book that you have to buy yourself! course lunch was alright though.

this looks like a very informative and friendly site, so dont be suprised if i stick my nose in your business.you know what us old blokes are like, we think we know everything!!!

 
Welcome to the forum, there are a few older fellows on here but I am not the eldest!

I remember the 1980.s was wearing an afro haircut at the time and some dodgy striped trousers and platform shoes. :eek:

And that was just to go to work:D:D

Welcome to the forum Grandad, One of the benefits of this forum is a good balance of age, experience and the enthusiasm of youth. I am sure you will fit in very well.
