Goverment paid for all the training, and tests as part of a retraining program, when I was made unemployed there was a £1000 available to each person for training for a new career, so I said I wanted to be a courier!

heh ! you think so? depends what you buy!! my machine is doing 30mpg, and needs a service every 400 miles, + new tyres @ 4K (rear) and 6K (front). Still reckon it's gonna be cheaper?

Have fun and be careful.
