Yep, had enough sat behind a desk counting bricks as a quantity surveyor and I'm going back into the motor trade!

I've been tempted back into it by a company called Bathwick who have offered me a package to take over their Plymouth branch, it needs a good sort out but has massive potential as it's a city centre site with ten ramps, MOT bay as well as all the servicing tyres, wheels, exhausts etc.

Really looking forward to it!

Best of luck mate. I used Bathwick Tyres (in Exeter though) for my last set. Good bunch of guys and way cheaper for Bridgestones than anybody else in this part of the world.

Thanks mate, always a risk but feel good now, it's what you said about where do you want to be in ten years time that made me realise I don't want to be sat behind this desk.
