They take Health & Safety very, very seriously on that site, bit ■■■■ about it if you ask me.

Just watch your P’s and Q’s when you are on site and doff your cap accordingly. Woe betide you if you park in a hatched area, stop where you shoudn’t or block a ped crossing or go above the speed limit, it’ll be a preachy letter to your gaffer about you and 3 letters and your firm is barred or something along those lines.

Spot on, but it does get easier, the quicker you suss out who is “GOD”, and who is playing @ it :wink:

And, makesure the trailer brake is ON, before you reverse under it, you are being watched :open_mouth:

Get the paperwork right, just like the trailer brake, and who is GOD, and, it really does fall into place pretty quickly :laughing:

The “hatched area” is NO GO, without a doubt, stray into it, and your dead meat :blush:

Believe it or not, the security guys/gals are a decent bunch, just don`t go in there thinking you can change their ways :unamused:

Yeah that’s the one thing I remember about it, lol, there is a curtain twitcher in the office watching the yard most, if not all the time. I bet he’s got a pair of binoculars too! :laughing:

He has got one of those snorkel type things, where he can twitch his curtains, and watch the cameras behind him @ the same time, or so i`m told :wink: :wink: :wink:
