Very generous exchange rate you found there DH. I make it around €1.57/£ Current market rates are around €1.36/£ making it even more F***ing expensive!!!!!

Grumpy

ffs what a price, im with you erik lets open 2 schools lol

That's just.... staggering really.

For that price, they could easily include near enough the full lot of kit you'd need to get started, and still make a very good profit.

I can only guess theres a lack of tiling schools over there.

Maybe thats why a few Irish guys had made their way to PTS in Warrington when I was there!

Grumpy

We get quite a few Irish lads over and have been looking at opening a school over in Irleand for some time but demand isn't there really so I can't really see anyone attending this paticular centre especially at those prices to be honest.
