hello all,

So after alot of coming and going and trying to figure out what i need to do i have decided to move to Uk and in particular london,

I have been lost since late last year when my company went into liquidation, it has been hard and i have been coming and going ever since, its hard enough to decide but im confident this time and ill try it out for a while and then maybe head further afield,

im looking to get into the construction sites and in particular plumbing, i have a relation based in bromley just south of london, zone 5 and i can stay there till i get my bearings,

i know the usual stuff i need sorted like CSCS card, NI number and bank account, im just wondering if there is anything else i need to have prepared before i go which will hopefully be end of next week,

does anyone know of plumbing companies hiring or any good projects well off the ground, i was also wondering if there is any irish plumbing firms or anything that comes to peoples minds,,

also is there any clubs etc that anyone would recommend joining as i will be coming alone, im usually ok at mixing and making friends but i cant imagine it will be too easy to get an immediate group of friends

any help would be really appreciated

Thanks

Plenty of builders/plumbers both Irish and English about, you just need to get on line, take a look and do the ground work. That said, I go past this place every day on the way to work and they were recently in a documentary...and their plumbers can make £100k if they put the work in..and they have a vacancy http://about-us.pimlicoplumbers.com/recruitment/vacancies

For clubs and meet up groups, there is so much to do in London you'll easily find something to interest you. Meetup.com is a good website for meet up groups.
There is also the London Forum meetups. There is usually a meet up once a month, along with a Pub Quiz meetup and a Cinema meetup:
