sorry if i have offended anyone, I just wanted to keep busy ,and not to get rich, i will reframe from offering this service,as it appears that I may have given the wrong impression, I brought my equipment with me from the uk, and thought that It would be interesting to see what responce i would get?

I am not trying to be obnoxious when I post things like that, its just that there are businesses here that offer the same kind of thing, and they need to earn their living. If you are retired and just doing as a hobby then fine, but I just think its wrong for us to promote ourselves to the detriment of the locals as no doubt a lot of their business is dependent on us in the first place. Typically most Brits would rather deal with other Brits as they find it easier - I say learn the language, get about a bit more and you will find some great companies and craftsmen - we should be helping the economy is all.

and pay over the ods for using locals as they see brits as cash cows.

as I say, learn the language, and you are more than half way there - they give people who try a little more respect - justly so.
