In the meanwhile, better part time job opputunity


Better Part Time Job Opportunity
If I do the PTLLs and CTTLs route, they are only 1 day a week at college (plus with placement time on CTLLS) so can get a better part time job to fund myself

As I like drawing I have applied for a tattoo and body-piercing course. They are two separate courses but are linked when it comes to getting a job in one or the other.
The pay is good as a standard piercing in £20 for a 10-minute job and can earn anything from £50 to a couple hundred pounds for an hours sitting as a tattooist.
