In life i just want to be able to afford to continue biking and support myself, go the pub bla bla nothing immense, certinaly not in the any time near future, i've never really been intrested in a long term learning career or offfice jobs etc....

And then just hopefully (not very likely) find someone to be with the rest of my life, nothing major just a normal life doing what i enjoy listed above.

Ok kool, then you need to learn how to drive HGV then. In my humble ideas I would suggest saving enough up to learn and pass what you want to do.

If you have enough cashed stashed, then why not go travelling/walkabout somewhere and see whats out there?

I really would suggest go travelling and living in another country, it changes your view point. If your not sure where to go, just pick a place at random and enjoy

I would suggest getting some career advice as a start point.

But you need to work out what you want of it all, where you to be, what kind of life you want.

Maybe miltary? You learn to drive and see a bit of world...

I have no idea about those kind of jobs, its not what I'm into too.

I can only stress do something that sets you on fire inside, otherwise there is no point, find what work for you.

I'm still looking for actual thing, but its out there. Just go for it.

Well i know nothing about the RAF or similair.

I would just be intrested in driving, where do you even start to look for stuff?

As for learndirect no such thing on the island, college is only thing on the whole island, there are no private courses or such. And the college is always full but tbh i don't fancy much classroom work as i was saying before bores me.

Can you get just driving related jobs in the army raf or w/e, and if so do you have to do any travelling or generally do you stay in the country bla bla...?

Ok i've looked around the RAF site and stuff for a couple of hours now, the basic problem seems that even if i wanted to become a "Driver" with them they seem to make no exception on asthmatics, i must admit having been asthmatic from a very young age i've only had 1 attack in my whole life. And i can assure anyone that driving and such forth certinaly does not tend to bring asthma on, strange one.
