Agile, No I dont think plumbers are on that much! Other people on my course have found employers - one is on 18K with a van - but I'd be happy to get anything right now!! 
Oh and I can be left to get on with work, just need someone there for guidance. I am not completely new to practical work as a lot of my course was practical and have plumbed a bathroom & airing cupboard. During my time off I am doing up my bedroom (plastering, moving radiator etc) and putting an ensuite in (slowly cos of lack of money!) - have got as far as putting the stud wall up!
Rommy, thanks for that advice...I hadn't considered that as an option but I will definitely look into it now!

Plumbunny why not do work for people you know for free. Stuff like moving radiators, checking the system out, flushing it out and re-filling, altering the time switches (most people don't know how to do this surprisingly) checking valves are working, balancing the system, adding outside taps etc.etc.
All you need to do is get them to pay for the goods and tell someone else about you, 1 person tells 2 people, 2 people tell 4 people, 4 people tell.............you get the idea, soon you will be so busy that you wont have the time to do your own en-suite

I strongly urge you not to work for free. Even if you're a bit slow your time is worth a lot more than zero.Daz66 said:
Value yourself, put a price on your time, and charge what you should. You'll get faster, and better, and you can put your rate up later.
