How many people remain on the same career path from school days to retirement? Not many is the answer, as Peter Brown from Fife will confirm.

Peter, who has run his own successful Motor Repair and MOT business for many years, has discovered his interest in Information Technology is pulling him in another career direction.

After leaving school at the age of 16 his working life commenced as a motor mechanic by firstly serving his time (apprenticehsip) in Edinburgh. This later led to him becoming a workshop foreman followed by service manager to finally owning his own garage/mot station, although he enjoys his work it is not an easy life.

Peter has always enjoyed using computers but admits he is far from being a 'computer whizz'. He has always had an ambition to own his personal website, but to begin with was not sure what the site would offer, then out of the blue he decided to launch www.121bid.co.uk an auction site.

Lots of Peter's friends rallied round and helped him to start this new venture, which is a very enjoyable hobby and a great challenge to him. Thankfully his partner shares his enthusiasm for the new venture.

www.121bid.co.uk which was launched recently, offers the seller the opportunity to advertise and sell their items via a secure payment procedure. Visitors to the site can find items for sale from the various category headings. Examples of items which can be found are shown on this page

In addition to providing 'auction' facilities www.121bid.co.uk also gives visitors the opportunity to insert their own advertising "banner" for a minimal charge.

The whole concept follows an easy to navigate website, with lots of help elements for the beginner. Anyone who has unwanted Xmas Gifts or treasured items they no longer wish to keep will find this method of parting with their goods is fun and profitable.

Why not visit www.121bid.co.uk and either sell that unwanted item or perhaps you will find exactly what you want to purchase.
