Title: He's officially an apprentice now.
Post by: CaptainZok on 18 August 2010, 22:21:32

Took the Gnome over to the college at Wigan earlier to enrol him for the day release part of his apprenticeship.
Another few years and I'll have my own tame mot tester. ;D ;D

Good stuff Cap'n.  The Gnome has a natural ability from what I have seen as well as a willingness to listen to others so as to avoid pitfalls.  A good combination....  Pass my best wishes, please.....  :y
