pop down your local newsagent - they're usually favourite for a free local college prospectus. Unless of course, the local college is closer!
or put your local college name in google and see if it's got an online prospectus...

Most local colleges do good evening courses, or you can do what I did as a student and ask the breakdown man just what he's doing

I bet he would if he bit into a brake drum
Back in my fathers younger days (Just after the invention of the wheel) he used to restore minis to substitute his income. So he comes in handy when something car related goes wrong. On a side note if anybody is interested in hiring a Linux web admin then he is looking for a job atm.
