Vans with "Testing ans inspection" on them.

*AND

Hold on! don't we inspect before we test? Should be Inspection and testing, yet many people have it the otherway round on their van/advertisement

Try to ignore the glaring error DoBBY, let's pray they don't use the van sign as a prompt

Hi DoBBY,

Yes you are right. There are a lot of vans with stuff written on them which if looked at correctly does seem wrong.
I guess it is more of a marketing thing and a business getting / grabbing exercise that is behind it.
Unfortunately it is the customers (the public?) that don't really know and go for what they think is right.
There are a lot of good guys on this forum who probably lose out because they are honest and state what they do, not what is nonsense.
Best wishes,
Rex

If I was.self employed I'd put 18th edition advertising that I'm one stage better ha ha. I bet most people would believe it.

I don't see why not...lol, as long as you don’t specify what the 18th edition is all about.

On the subject I saw the olde NICEIC which the graphics were for INSTALLION contractors. Were these the horses for the cowboys

Someone once told me that when pairs of food items were listed, e.g. Fish & Chips, Ham & Eggs, Steak & Chips, etc., it was always the item with the most protien that was listed first; never the other way around. I've yet to find an example that breaks this rule! I wonder if there is the same logic operating with "Testing & Inspection" - it's because the testing is the 'bigger' job it gets listed first.

i find 3 out of the 4 pages on a basic pir are inspection rather than testing!!

If it said testing then inspection it would wrong but since its testing AND inspection it just means both.
