Fair enough, Denis. But how do you demonstrate (prove is a bit too strong for me) that the manufacturer’s procedures have been followed, then? A printout from HECS (for example), swearing on the Bible, or what?

Come to think of it, Mate, this could be an opening for us – we could set up as “expert witnesses” to say whether the piece of kit in question was serviceable or not!

For the life of me, I can’t see why an official body such as the MHRA does not sort out matters like this. What do we pay our taxes for, anyway? smile


If you don't inspect ... don't expect.
