depends on your current qualifications...Mctip maybe? MCSE if your advanced enough. If not Comptia A+ is always a good place to start
Doesn't matter if you already know it. (most of the time)
You need the qualifications to show potential employers you can indeed do what you say you can! (most of the time)

Do the easy course.
If you want to be challenged, learn to program c++ at the same time.
That way you'll get the qualification, be challenged, AND when you've been an it technician for 4 years and realise you'll never earn > 22K and are bored silly of installed printer drivers on to 412 different computers that in the company you work for that need them, you've got an escape route into development!

Can't you just spend it on components on ocuk site?
Is your post a typical example of your written English skills? If so improve them first, that'll help far more than any technical skills you can brush up on.
After that I guess I'd recommend you train in something you know - knowing doesn't count for much if you can't prove it to a HR drone. If you think you won't do the work because it's boring then maybe IT isn't the career for you, it's often boring.
