Scaffolders scarped

[transam]

Speaking of scaffolding

we work at a HSE training centre
They run safety courses for amongst other things scaffolding

I was there last week they had a course going on with about 15 candidates

mostly or all specifiers and site managers etc ?

directly opposite the centre on the other side of the road was a large house were substantial scaffolding had been put up so as the roof could be replaced the scaffolding included a temp tin roof

up rock the scaffolders to take it down oh dear

blokes running around on the tin roof in shorts bombing stuff down from 3 storeys up all opposite an hse training centre with an ongoing scaffolding safety course going on

safety centre had the entire site closed down on safety grounds and that was that

What jurisdiction did they have to do that?

Were the courses run by HSE themselves?

I once spent a few weeks working in in Kingston on Thames and used to drive home via Hersham and Chertsey. Whenever I saw the 'Hersham' sign it would have a strange effect on me, namely, me breaking into song, more specifically, Hersham Boys by Sham 69.
One evening I was driving the van down Chertsey High St singing 'Hersham boys, Hersham boys Laced up boots and corduroys' at the top of me voice when I looked at the pavement and saw Jimmy Pursey of Sham 69 stood outside a hotel/pub.

What are the chances of that happening?

That remark could be taken as rather sexist.

Who says it is unsafe?

It was blatantly obviously unsafe.

However, the good news is that they suddenly appeared and finished it over the weekend How long it will take to get them to remove it when the job is done remains to be seen though

I did a big orangery in Hersham - it was about 12 metres long with utility room.

Nice leafy Surrey suburb

Yes it's all quite pleasant down that way. Did you sing 'Hersham boys'?
