Hi, I need to replace 2 warning lights at the back of 2 squash courts (its a red light that comes on 5 minutes before the end of the game to let the players know the lights will go off). One of them has fallen to bits after probably being hit too many times, the other one fell off and was thrown...
Just a heads up for anyone doing agency work. If you come across an agency called Ahearne stay well clear. They used to be called Gulmanda. I worked for them for 8days hired by an Irish woman called Jackie. She always uses a mobile never an office number. Tried to force me to go under the...

Guys
just been doing some reading and have raised a question that I am not sure about. I guess you all put your Bs951 clams on the water, oil and gas pipes with the appropriate label but, do you also affix a warning label to the MET if this is accessible. My reading of 514.13.1 suggests that...

Catching up on Breaking Bad season 5 (part I) on DVD box set - don't have Netflix - and had to admire Walter's ingenious use of electricity to escape the plastic hand-cuffs.

Good Evening All,
