Get them picture's up Jay will do bud got video clips to but still cant get my sony cam speaking to my mac it did months back but I degraded to imovie 06 from 08 and it wont run Help? Upgrade back to imovie 08

Was just my thought's about what i experience today with today's new starter's. One of the biggest problems i find is that they are not allowed to run lose like i was when i started, company's are so scared of the HSE these days. But your right you never stop learning.......so my apprenticeship as been going on for 28 years.

Get them picture's up Jay

Nice one Richie and if i have not said it before welcome to the forum. Glad your enjoying your zed so much. Why not try the Wales drive out in May?

I was asking around at the weekend for someone to video Wales, lets face it having 30-40 zed's rolling into Bala would make great footage

Don't know how true it is but heard vista service pack 1 may be out for download tomorrow followed shortly by the last service pack for xp SP3.

Its mostly maintenance and installing modifications, if you have done an aprenticeship you'll be fine. Out of the 15 of us that started about two thirds are electricians in one form or another, and the rest are fitters. The company dosn't do seperate trades though - you're expected to do both electrical and mechanical work, as there is usually only 2 guys working on the turbine. Although we have one lad who did PLC's and elecronics who's never touched anything above 12Vdc! There are loads of offshore windfarms planned, especially on the east coast! http://www.bwea.com/ukwed/offshore.asp Google them - most sites have their own website. I just applied to an ad in the local paper! Sorry Martin, theres two boats on order for us already! Incidentally, i may yet get a placement at the Barrow site, i'll let you know. Yeah I did a full apprenticeship, been qualified for nearly a year now. I want another year or two experience before I leave though as I'm comfortable at the moment. The mechanical side would interest me as although I am qualified, it's more the installation side the interests me than the technical side if you follow me I was thinking about going on the oil rigs or possibly even the research bases at the south pole. Only problem with the latter is it is about £25k a year, although it is tax free, it's not very much for spending most of your year with penguins and polar bears. I'll definately look into this in the future, pictures make it look fascinating I am a industrial electrician too, have been for 28 years Did a five year apprenticeship. The only thing i have noticed today is that the apprenticeships seem to be about 3 year's now and they get a better qualification than i ever got, yet the apprentice's we have don't seem to have a clue when it come's to hands on experience But like you say they have to do both mechanical and electrical. Mainly do plc's myself today and that is just not fault finding them, i build complete systems from the ground up and write the programmes. Experienced in Mitsubishi, Square D, Siemens S5 and S7 and do HMI and SCADA work too, but also change the odd light bulb, or replace the odd 500 horse power motor. Look's like you have an interesting job here and nice pic's.

Took me a while to get mine on (6 months), but thats just rediculous!!! Get it on now! Will try today as i have the day off

Nice pics

Must put mine on at sometime, had it since the 2nd Wales drive out.

Strange mine does that too
