Now you're talking Aunt Sally  Oh how I love loved completing risk assessments.... as Educational Visits co-ordinator I am was a dab hand at churning them out - blinking good ones too.

I hope our local County format is acceptable or do you require undustrial standard? 
Richie do you think Gwoz will be able to knock out a few helmets - that'd look brilliant as a risk control factor

Personal Protective Equipment must be the last measure to be employed.  

Lowering the likelihood of an accident happening and inherent risks should be controlled first  

[Aunt Sally]

Jousting on stationary chairs using feather dusters would be acceptable.

Quite agree but... the aim of the activity might influence the acceptablity and level of risk..

Stationary chair feather dusting is down for the ladies... (have I quoted that properly? ) - A good idea (as one would expect being from you Auntie) someone will need to keep the place in good order so feather-dusting of chairs sounds good - as long as no one is trying to use them to sit on near the large liquid refreshment cooler centre (BAR for short)

Learner :blink: just because you now have more time on your hands doesn't mean you have to start encouraging those naughty boys to misbehave.

It even sounds as if you want to join in ....I don't believe it

[Aunt Sally]

  I know they don't teach comprehension in English lessons nowadays Learner but I expect you should have studied it at school.  I think you need to take a revision course

Sorry...  it's the excitement of being home from my parents place (and not having to stay the night) and not having to do any work for the morning!!  :happy:

I am really supposed to be searching for a new, simple to use, microwave for my mother as hers is used very fequently and showning signs of wear... I was also going to search for information about remote thermostats for cetral heating as my dad is drving me bonkers  :blink:  phoning me up to say the radiators have "gone cold" and will I cycle round (having left all fo 50 minutes ago) to turn them on again

We din't do no compression lessons - we done literacy 

[Aunt Sally]

Literacy    then why are most of the school children illiterate now ?

I blame the teachers     

[Aunt Sally]

Bring back precis, comprehension and clause analysis I say.  That would teach them 

I've always found it very benificial to know the difference abetween adverbial and adjectival clauses 

[Aunt Sally]

NOT !

I used a very nice IWB programme to help me the children understand this vitally important facet of Enlgish grammar - well they enjoyed learning with the new interactive electronic white-board so were keen to discover the wonders of our rich and diverse language... play
