hi, i have just passed a dipolma level 2,,and trying to find a exprienced plasterer or firm to take me on....agencies ask for 2 work related refferences...but just having pasted my dipolma i could'nt go down that route.....iam buying a van in the next couple of weeks, and i had a lad i know from the local gym i go to, who's been in the trade years lined up who'd just lost his licence...and thought that would be ideal, i help him, out he helps me out...but he got on with a firm while i was saving up for the van...can't blame him, he has kids and a morgage..so it's back to the drawing board......any advice is gratefully recieved... i live in the durham area
