S.P=Scottish Power,S.S=Scottish and Southern.

Ask around if you see some of there squads or get a form and bung it in youv'e nothing to loose.

As a footnote; Tell any prospective employer how keen you are to do overtime etc it means you are keen to work ,and dress smart ie casual because you are not going to be a banker !.

The trouble is amigo , there isn't much work about , 3 years ago you'd have got a job in no time.

 

I suggest if you want to keep your hand in the job, join a ''conservation volunteer group'' the sort that clear old woods, coppice, etc, looks good on a cv too
