I always turned up for interviews wearing a suit, I became aware that things were changing in the early 1990's, when a manager did a double take when I walked in. I was much more formally dressed than he - I made the excuse that I had somewhere else to go immediately after. I got the job, but I never wore a suit to an interview after that.

There have been times in my life when I haven't had a suit, I appeared for my first interview wearing school uniform, but got a suit soon after starting work. I now always have a suit, just for those rare occasions. Mostly it resides in the wardrobe, under plastic, ready for emergencies. I always feel and felt embarrassed wearing a suit and tie, over dressed.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.
