They may even be those of the EU as well? Gas and electricity don't recognise political jurisdictions. They will create mayhem or worse, wherever they get the opportunity, without giving it to them on a plate. Some might say that what has gone on with Douglas promenade to date has already been of a low enough standard, without letting standards slip further just because we're a rock in the middle of the Irish Sea. I wasnt implying anything. I was just saying that people shouldn't make statements that are not true. Someone said that they were breaking every rule in the book. Seems there are no rules and in fact no book either. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can argue about the wording 'should' instead of 'must' or whatever, but they are the rules. I'm sure, could I actually be bothered, find the actual legislation. For clarity I've never laid a gas main, you need to have some kind of registration to do so, but I've dug the fucking trench for one. By hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping one of you gets on the blower in the morning to establish if a major breach has been committed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gas main was too high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
