    Consumer unit change.

    It is awkward, expensive and a nuisance. However, once in it is surprising how protective you become as there are many hooligans out there who just don't give a monkeys about quality or safety of work and it narks you when you pay all this money to do things the right way.

    Dangerous Dog?

    Thanks Noz. The dog was lucky as I normally have a stanley knife in my work trousers and can honestly say if I did I would have slit its throat! Just so happened I had a new pair of trousers on and didn't put my knife in them. The attack was vicious, unprovoked and disturbing. They don't know...

    Ok, apologies. Didn't realise you had paid to notify through your LABC.

    Consumer unit change.

    So in theory, you are not complying with the regs. It wouldn't stand up in court if you said that you intended to register but not got around to it yet. I wouldn't mind betting you do loads of this - little bit of cash work here and there eh?

    Consumer unit change.

    Steps does have a point. Are you aware that a CU change is notifiable work? Are you registered with NIC, Napit or another scam provider? How do you intend notifying said works. That is just one point he has picked up on.

    And a gym so you can get buff - and 3 meals, a playstation 3, porno pics on your walls - would be like being a teenager all over again!

    Few days off?

    Well, I have finished until Tuesday now and next week is a deliberate 2 day week for me - time to chill for a few days after a manic first quarter of the year. The wife and kids are going to the in-laws so it's just me and the three dogs! My plans entail chilling and racking up the miles on my...

    dodgy stuff on ebay

    I don't know Steps, plagarism is rife and contrary to what we all think, authors in education don't make a fantastic living - maybe the funds just aren't there to combat these individuals.

    dodgy stuff on ebay

    I don't think anyone who matters really gives a hoot otherwise these sellers would have been stopped years ago. Maybe they just accept it as one of those things that happens in the world of publishing.

    dodgy stuff on ebay

    I bought a CD years ago when I was an apprentice. I imagine that it infringed copyright in many ways as along with other stuff, logo's for all the scam's were on there, certificates, estimating software, all the building regs to name just a few. Think I paid a fiver! It was very handy at times...

    trying to justify buying an iPad

    She may love it! I just think that it is an over sized iPhone and functionality is very limited. Great to browse the web or read from but not much else imo.
