    Are you talking about your national craft certificate?

    Why do you need it for? Its not Luke you need one to be a plumber in this country. I know loads plumbers who don't have their papers. In fact I know loads of tradesmen who don't gave papers and have made a good living out of it. Sent their kids to college, built houses etc....

    I know but that doesn't mean there's not a loop hole around getting that cert without your plumbing paper's.

    You don't need only plumbing papers. As far as I know, you can get it still if you hold a national craft certificate. ie qualified electrican etc. Maybe even a carpenter for all I know.
    The real cowboys are the guys (postman, taxi driver etc) who did the OFTEC oil course, and this qualified them to do the gas course, Which was ridiculous and is no longer acceptable.
    These are the true Cowboys
