Hi Andy.
Yes one I forgot. I do think the smaller towns and those not so close to the cities and larger places will quite possibly have a bigger chance of having an engineer.
Also you will know yourself that farmers are more likely to mend and make do than townies. Certainly Girvan and Sorn would come under that spectrum. Bairds of course as we know has closed for more than one reason. Bob will be 77 in January but the pressing need there is care for his wife, he did though mention many times that it was dying. Sad as Bob was one of the few that invested in lots of equipment for LCD & Plasma, including jigs to hold the sets while they were dismantled, up to date test equipment and big rows with Samsung and others that flatly refused to supply manuals and components.
One other sector that employed engineers was the furniture outlets, Grants up here had a few but these were often swallowed up by the big rental companies.
