Title: public liabilty...a must
Post by: tomo on November 20, 2005, 01:45:58 pm: i hadnt realised that my public liabiltiy had lapsed. having just started this week with wfp i was bricking it just in case my water froze at the end of the day jobs and customers slip on it. I now have cover... phew... but its a serious matter if someone does slip and hurt themselves they hear ch ching where there's a blame there's a claim its gettin like america. It does give peace of mind i know most of you all have it but if you dont, get it, dont be sorry. ;)

Regards

Tom

And then sure enough, it started to happen.......i nearly went flying after walking on some ice, that "i'd" put there. It'd be hard to prove it was through my negligence i'd have thought, but that's no consolation to the old gal who needs a new hip :-\ Still, something for all wfp'ers to bear in mind. Just hope this Big Freeze soon passes

Not the big superstores like B&Q but the small handyman type.

I wasn't able to get holds of any today. I bought some screenwash, a large spray bottle, and a floor squeegee instead until I can get some.
