I would assume that he is qualified and registered through a company he

I think I saw on their website sometime recently that they have set up a
class of registration to cover the homers.

Found it

Still costs £175 though.

Interesting... It also notes that people may well be in breach of their
employment contract if they carry out such work. It is a slightly dubious
position for many people to be in, - by taking out the registration they
show there intent to carry out extra jobs. This could put them in a tight
spot with their employers, and I imagine for a lot of them the tax man as
well.

Still it gets Corgi an extra few bob , which is all they are interested in
at the end of the day as far as I can tell
