Hi!

I've been lurking here for a few weeks now and have got up the courage to register and say hello.

I'm just starting off in framing and am going to start it as a hobby and hopefully heading into something more. At the moment I'm a IT manager and its an industry I just want to get out of.

If I get stuck on anything I hope you don't mind some stupid questions being asked.

Anyway, cya around.

Paul.

Hi Paul,

Welcome to the forum.

You will find a lot of very helpful folk here, as I'm sure you have already noticed.

Don't be afraid to ask, we've all been there. You might be able to field a few IT questions in return.

Cheers John.

I'd certainly help with IT stuff where I can. I was a little shocked to see how many people use no wireless security and have little in terms of backups etc.

I'm looking around for training and have found 2 places which do some courses in the Midlands. Has anyone heard of DIYFraming and FrameCo?

Found out that Lions are only 30 minutes from my work. Could I buy from them even though I don't have my own business yet?

Anyway, rambling on.. Best go, boss coming!

Paul.

Hi Paul and welcome to the forum

Has anyone heard of DIYFraming and FrameCo

I spent 2 years teaching for DIY Framing and currently teach for Frameco in the North East. If you would like to email me I can give you more details on both companies as they both have good and bad points that I dont want to discuss on an open forum.

Found out that Lions are only 30 minutes from my work.

I don't think there will be a problem so long as you are buying in quantity, but might be an idea to have a business name.

Hello Paul and welcome!

A CHAV goes into the jobcentre and says "I wanna job innit!"

"Well" says the guy, "That's what we're here for, what sort of job?"

"I wan' the one in the windah man, da one dat sez like 'Do You Want A Job Innit"

"Er, no" says the guy, "That says "Do You Want a Job In I.T."

(sorry)

Hi Paul,

If you make a personal visit to Lion you can purchase any quantity of moulding, single sheets of mountboard etc.

Best wishes,
Arthur.
