[The Wooksta!]

Invested in my future
Professional Chef vols 1, 2 & 3

College books leading to NVQ and diploma.  Having flipped through volume 1, it looks to be reasonably easy.  Might get me Dad to go through it with me as some kind of free ersatz training.

Got another of the bookazine company profile series, this time the subject is Vickers from 1911-1977.

From the airships of the Admiralty to the magnificent VC10 and a cut away digram od the V-1000, the usual profile artwork by Andy Hay of www.flyingart.co.uk is scattered about the book.

Also from the Hereford trip today :-

1) The re-print of Bill Waterton's 'The Quick and the Dead'. read it years ago from the library but it seemed a good idea to get my own copy.

2) Hayne's 'Dambusters' Manual. SUPERB descriptions and diagrams of all the 617 Sqdn. weapons during WWII and a short while afterwards too. Very informative.

a copy of the 1979 dan dare album    had it when I was a kid, but It either got traded for something or one of my younger brothers snaffled it.  and at the grand price of a whole quid  nice and cheap.

NVQ courses have no written exams, and is a series of oral questions ,observations and  set coursework. In what they term as modulars or subjects ..An independent NVQ assessor will judge your coursework from time to time and say you homework .There is no failures but grades are given and modulars can be retaken to gain a better grade.
Good luck.
