I’m getting a little ahead of myself as I don’t have the cash right now anyway but…
Do I remember reading in a post somewhere that some training schools can accredit you CPC training hours while training up for you C+E? Or did I dream that? Also would they usually charge you extra for the privilege?
Yes. Some trainers (incl us) have the C and CE courses approved for driver cpc. Varying charges apply but generally less than 7 hours in the classroom.
When choosing your trainer, remember to ask if you can get cpc from your training as it is the minority of trainers that offer this.
Hope this helps, Pete 
Yes thanks mate
