    Please warn your parents about the common scam calls, however sensible they are

    Off topic, but just a public information alert to talk to your parents/elderly relatives to let them know of the common phone scams. My mother fell for one today, even though she's still very much with it for 82 and usually pretty sensible... "police officer" from the fraud squad rang her...

    BEAMA Calls For EICRs To Be Done In UK Residential Buildings Every 5 Years

    An interesting report. I'm in favour. My own opinion is that ten years between inspection and testing of domestic installations is too long, and that this period should be reduced to five years. I particularly like the proposal that an EICR be compulsory whenever there is a change of occupancy...

    Too many calls!

    I was wandering what people do when they're busy as hell and have phone call after phone call from potential customers.

Now...
