well I could send you a postcard, as I am on my hols next week!
Nothing like promoting discussion-helps prevent the fables that develope when your workplace is insular!
The benefit of you more experienced engineers is that you know the history of why some decisions were made, the though processes behind them.For us more junior practishioners, that reasoning has not always been passed on, no matter how many courses etc we have been on.We sometimes also have to second guess, which adds to the mix.When I first started in FS, I was told ask 5 different inspectors and they will give 5 different answers-how true-and all of them plausible!

It will be interesting to see what the Rosepark Care Home fire Report has to say about fire in cupboards, it would seem in this case that the fire started in a cupboard on the ground floor and smoke killed 14 service users on the first floor, even with smoke detection in the building.
How carefull can you be?
Any one now if the report is expected to be made public and if so when.

possibly one of the reasons that there may not have been any smoke seals on any of the bedroom doors-ala 'draft green guide'.
