Sorry I haven't replied to your question til now. Have been ill and are now playing catch up with everything.
I'm a trained florist, I took city and guilds 1,2 and 3 - 19 years ago then started my intermediate but because the tutor felt I needs some more experience I was not allowed to talk the exam, even thought she said I would pass!! I think she was worried as I would have only been 21 when I took the exam. Most people were over 25years old . I've had my own shop for the last nine years. I relocated my business 3 years ago from a really quite area to a much better position in a double shop unit shop. Then this year I have split the shop back into two shops and now just have a single unit which is much better and will hopefully be better prepared for the economic down turn that happening.

Welcome Johan. What a real shame you didn't get to sit you ICSF. I had just turned 21 when I passed mine, I know experience counts for alot but its much easier to achieve qualifications when your young and have less commitments. Well done to you for keeping with it. Look forward to chatting.
I haven't forgotten you!
Welcome m'dear ... may you have much fun here. I haven't forgotten you or the issue ... but just struggling to get everything done at the mo. Time is moving faster than my brain, hands or body. However will get on the case as soon as I can.
