Or because it's recent, maybe one of you out there actually is one!! His occupation a year earlier is an electronics assembler (and I know what that is!) so I guess it's something similar, but because my husband and I had never heard of it before, we were interested to find out. Thank you!

	Hi Mandy A prototype wireman is someone who works in the research and development part of a company, wiring up new (prototype) equipment. Would be a qualified Electronics engineer to be able to do this work. Hope you are looking after Somerset for me. Mal.
