Attention Smiffy……..run for the hills. 😂
If your near Derby tomorrow, your not far from Nottingham.
Give these guys a ring
Evolution Diagnostics and Tuning Ltd
I had my little 595 Abarth remapped there this week.
Very friendly and professional service.
I know they do do deisels as well as petrol.
Explain the size of your van because it is a unit along side other units. Lots of room to park before you pull in to their unit
Explain your obd port . See what they say they are a good outfit.
Also about a mile away there is a road where lots of motorhomes overnight.
It's in-between nottingham racecourse and Colwick park ( by the river trent),lots of room to walk the Dags 👍

I've got a hammer & chisel, mole grips & pliers, should be able to do it at a reasonable rate. 🤣
Nah, you'll still be too expensive ... I'd do it for nowt as I like to use my power tools especially the large cordless drill I got in France with a 90 degree attachment which would fit nicely in his gob! :LOL:

Thought I'd found me next job there , elderly lady small campsite owner n Worcester

looking for a general maintenance warden. Cutting grass. Weeding etc etc , £12 an hour and a static caravan to live in . But she wants me fulltime all year round , last warden been there 6 years but leaving in November.

Had a lovely chat on the phone with her but sadly its no good for me as I still want to travel

But she said her son has 2 parks aswell and he's looking for someone seasonal so she's going to pass on my number.


Lots of vacancies just now for next year but all want a cv and I don't have one .

Are you sure you don’t have a cv? Everyone has a cv - it’s your life history, obviously majoring on work, employment etc.

I could understand if you said you could not get references.

Well what I mean is I don't have one that I can email etc. I haven't worked a job I needed one for since I left my warehouse supervisor position in 2017. And I worked there for 12 years so 19 years since I applied for a job lol.
Since 2017 I've only done casual self employed delivery work which required no interviews application etc ..I was head hunted for most of those.

I can't provide references as every proper company I've worked for is no longer in business.

So I don't know where to start to be honest

It's easy to knock up a CV, there are templates online.
Easy to say lol. But I genuinely don't have a clue. How do you fit everything on 1 a4 sheet . I don't have any experience working on a campsite but it isn't rocket science really. Anyone who's had a house can cut grass , weed. Do general maintenance and clean can't they.


As I said I just don't know where to start

You was self employed since 2017, have traveled extensive etc, a cv is nothing more than a list of what you have done. Most are full of bull to make them sound better.

Warehouse Supervisor for 12 years is a great endorsement and a great topic for your cv. What sort of warehouse, where, how many staff did you supervise? What did the job entail etc?
I worked for havelock Europe, they were a large shopfitting company. I was one of 4 picking and despatch team leading supervisors , I was hands on so while I was in charge of 8 fulltime and usually 5/7 agency pickers ( they picked and packed the various components) I also picked ,packed and dispatched items myself. I was also one of 4 fire marshal's, first aiders and held the licences for various height working machinery, ie cherrypickers. Scissor lifts and both counterbalance and reach truck forklifts . A little bit of computing work but mostly on their own stock control software etc.
Prior to that I've done a bit of everything. Mechanics, valeting, welder, powder coater, fabricator, saw operator etc. Basically I did any job that paid the bills and changed jobs when I could get a pay increase for them.
