    Effective tradesman advertising options

    No joy thus far. I put ads on virtually all of them. It's hard to gauge how much people would refer to them for electrical services. Worth a try. Just very frustrated trying to generate some paying work.

    Let's call a spade a spade...the guy is taking the p**s in this day and age. It's fair enough him starting and leaving on time, taking his lunch hour etc. Not a lot you can do about that...but the internet usage, the language, the lonely file on the in-tray.

    Health Promotion or Exercise and Health Studies???

    If you're intent on doing one of those degrees then I'd go with the Health & Exercise. I'd be surprised if the NCEF wasn't build into the first two years of it- check this with the course leader.
