Starting out

[jontus5]

Hi after recently moving to leeds i have found temp employment with a self employed groundworker working on a site doing drainage and stuff. He also had me along one weekend to help him with a block paving job and i enjoyed it so much i would like to learn this and one day ( i know i wont be able to set up as a pro and do peoples drives overnight) i hope to do this for myself. Any ideas on the best way to go about this.

cheers and good luck LLL

thanks LLL might have to lok into one of them courses. I want to be sure i am confident before i attempt to make money from it i dont want to be a cowboy ( as bad as thieves in my opinion). What about insurance and stuff??

sorry fella we dont do business plans here,most lads that do it professional work for someone else for at least 5 years,then branch out on their own .
cheers LLL

See the HLTG page for details of one and two day courses I'm running over the next few months. The schedule for Jun-Oct will be published some time next week.
