[QUOTE="Ffermer Bach, post: 8081783, member: 51054"] I don't think it is Health & Safety as such, it is our, stupid British idea of copper plating all the regulations, and making them far more onerous than they need to be. I remember at work, I used to dread when a manager would say "it would be good practice to....." as I knew they would be looking at the rules we had to comply with, and then adding to them to be on the safe side (usually making things unworkable). We as a country aren't a country of shopkeepers, rather a county of bureaucrats and if I was going to pick one character from the TV to represent the UK it would be air raid warden Hodges from Dad's Army unfortunately! That's why in Little Britain "computer say's no" had such a resonance with everyone watching. [/QUOTE]
