Messey, Surely you can just explain that the way your F&RS works your line manager is busy standing by a fire hydrant and is neither skilled in, has any apptitude for, and certainly no interest in fire safety. Or lie to them and say he is on a harrassment course for 9 weeks. That sounds quite believable. I like cold sausages, provided they come with soggy beans. Can I drop by for something to eat. (We are feeding one of your number at our Xmas party soon.)
First Minister Retty, Why is it so many people believe its all about protecting rear ends, instead of the practise of professional judgement. Dont bother to reply, I think I know the answer. And I didnt say a determination had been sought-that was Messey, and he lives in a world where fire safety policy is just a rumour spread in the canteen and apparently not well disseminated because of the poor acoustics therein.
Baldy, That wasnt me being sarcastic. You will know when  I am being sarcastic. Disabled people are a group especially at risk who need to be identified as such and have adequate fire precautions, so they have an equivalent standard of safety. Being politically correct about them is to their detriment as far as safety is concerned. Thats why BS 5588-8 is being withdrawn, as disabled pressure wanted them to be dealt with by BS 9999, so they could have a crap standard same as everyone else, and the requirements for their safety could be lost in a jungle of waffle. They may live (or die) to regret it.
Jokar, No you are not going mad, the world in which you live is. Personally, I frequently regret ever becoming part of it. I should have been a vet.

I can't believe you've invited any of 'ours' to your Xmas dinner without asking me (I'd bring the cold sausages).

What is this anyway? Somekind of Xmas truce with the enemy?? ::)

No, messey i made a resolution to invite ALL the decent fire safety people in your service to break bread with us this year. I had 50% of them at our company's 25th anniversary party, and I am having the other 50% to our xmas party. Both of the guys are very bright, competent and thoroughly good eggs, merely poor in their choice of employer.

You haven't told them that they are limited to one chipolata,a razer cut slice of turkey and a sprout (members of official bodies get a stuffing ball).
